Prom Dress Giveaway Begins Monday
Dresses for students will be distributed on Monday and Tuesday in Toms River
Students in need of a dress for the upcoming prom season can pick up a gently-worn garment Monday and Tuesday at Toms River's Ocean County Library branch.
Dress donations have been collected since February and are now ready for distribution to those in need from 4 to 8 p.m. both days in the Bishop Building adjacent to the main library.
Children in grades 8 through 12 are allowed one dress, free of charge, for their prom, junior prom or eighth grade graduation, according to the library.
