Do you have two (or 10) prom dresses and bridesmaids’ gowns cluttering up your closets? Let another girl feel like Cinderella for a night and donate dresses, shoes, handbags, and accessories to Operation Fairy Dust (operationfairydust.org). South Salem resident Jerry Pozniak heads up the effort in Westchester; his wife, Lisa Miller, will accept the gowns at her Cottage Antiques Shop located at Gossett Brothers Nursery (1202 Rte 35, South Salem, 914-763-3001) from January through March. Pozniak’s Cameo Cleaners (cameocleaners.com), located in New York City, will clean and press the gowns. Operation PROM, a non-profit founded by former Yonkers student Noel D’Allacco five years ago, also helps hundreds of local teens living in shelters, group homes, or low-income households attend their prom at little or no cost. To reach even more teens, Operation PROM has joined forces with the Westchester County Department of Social Services. For information on how to donate a prom dress or to make a charitable contribution, visit helpprom.org or call Trish Quattrocchi at DSS at (914) 995-9306.
