Teens browsing prom attire
Charlotte, N.C.– Lydia’s Loft Prom Closet has donated and supplied thousands of gently used and new prom dresses and tuxedos to local students. Teenagers attending prom are invited to shop the prom closet in the old education building of The First Baptist Church of Huntersville every Saturday through the end of May. Rising’s Lauren McDonald met up with one of the co-founders of The Prom Closet to learn more about the mission and how it started.
