Clean out your Closet for a Cause! 

The Junior League of Kalamazoo and Memories Evening Wear would like to provide gently used gowns and accessories to area High School girls who otherwise wouldn't be able to attend their prom due to financial hardship.  We want to help girls understand the significance of this milestone and recognize them for their accomplishments by staying in school when financial and personal circumstances may make it difficult.  On "Boutique Day" (April 11, 2010) the young ladies who have been referred by their school or community leaders, will be assisted by JLK volunteers to find the dress of their dreams at no cost to them.
