Help Make a Teen’s Prom Dream Come True!
The North Ward Center Family Success Center and Barringer High School will be teaming up to give students the opportunity to shine on their special night. Your donations can make prom a reality for teens in need!
The North Ward Center will be collecting:
- Gently used or new formal dresses
- Suits, tuxedos, and dress shirts
- Shoes, handbags, and accessories
Drop-off Location:
Barringer High School
90 Parker Street, Newark, NJ 07104
Prom It Forward Pop-Up Shop
The event has been postponed and will now take place in April.
While this is a change in schedule, we are excited about the opportunity it brings. This additional time allows us and our partners at Barringer High School to continue collecting donations so we can support even more students preparing for prom.
Our goal is to ensure that as many students as possible have access to prom attire, and this is only possible with the continued support of our community partners. We are truly grateful to those who have already contributed donations and helped move this initiative forward.
Please note that we will continue collecting donations through April 16, 2026. If you would like to donate, items can be dropped off directly at Barringer High School.
Donations are also being accepted at our Family Success Center (286 Mt. Prospect Ave. Newark, NJ 07104) for those who may find it more convenient.
