Review for Enchanted Closet, Inc., Atlanta , GA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

This organization is small by mighty. The Enchanted Closet is run by all volunteers and has managed to serve over 6500 girls in the Metropolitan Atlanta since it was founded. It's Signature Program is the Prom Dress Giveaway . The Enchanted Closet provides prom dresses and accessories to girls who would not be able to attend prom due to the finances. The Enchanted Closet also has a girls mentoring program, which is designed to encourage and support girls in the development of educational and life skills. Monthly programs typically focus on health eating, exercise, public speaking, brand building, etiquette, budgeting, STEM/STEAM, and college prep, to name a few. The organization could not do this without the generous support of the community through donations of dresses, shoes, accessories and monies. With all that the Enchanted Closet does, I am proud to be associated with this positive organization working to make a difference in the lives of girls.

I have been involved with this organization since 2004. This organization fills a need that is often times overlooked, but the prom is an important rite of passage for young girls. Making a difference in young girls lives has been a rewarding experience. Seeing a young girl's demeanor change from ho-hum to estatic when they find the dress of their dreams is heartwarming. This community service opportunity has afforded me an enjoyable giveback experience.
