The idea of hosting a “Mom Prom” for young
ladies and their escorts sounds like so much fun, especially when coupled with
karaoke, tuxedo t-shirts and makeovers!
A group of friends in Ruthven, Iowa, organized an outing called “The
Glitz”, choosing to support a charity that everyone wanted to support. All of
the young women wanted to donate their dollars to the Ronald McDonald House Charity
in Sioux Falls, and their $700 donation came in the form of an online donation.
Businesses also gathered around the girls’ idea
and were happy to help support their efforts in helping towards the cause. The
local Bar and Grill Bully's, helped out by donating karaoke so the couples
could dance the night away, and others gave monetary donations.
Brandie, one of the participants shared, “We donated
money to attend, and in turn got a free makeover and enjoyed a potluck style
dinner. We wore bridesmaid dresses, prom dresses and there was even a
wedding dress. Our dates were decked out in Tuxedo t-shirts.”
The event was held over the summer and had
around 40 guests attending. The Ronald
McDonald House Charities are encouraged by this group of couples
enjoying their special event and choosing to collect donations for their
participation. We love to see people being helped by friends having fun!
