OPERATION PROM DRESS HELPS CLAY STUDENTS - Dresses Distributed Yesterday In School Gym

(04/23/2002)

Over 400 free prom dresses, many of them brand new, were distributed yesterday to young women at Clay County High School, a New York to West Virginia project. Students at the expensive Hewitt School initiated "Operation Prom Dress." Slightly over 600 kids attend Clay County High School, and some of them might be pressed to afford a prom dress, say the organizers. Clay County principal Cindy Willis said some kids were a little skeptical about the project, but "I think rather than the material thing, the most important thing is the friendship and the cultural exchange."
