DonateMyDress.org is part of the Hearst Teen Network, which includes Seventeen.com, CosmoGirl.com, MisQuinceMag.com, MyPromStyle.com, eCRUSH.com and eSPIN.com. According to a 2008 Hearst Teen survey, teen girls spent an average of $236 on a prom dress and $566 total on the prom night experience. In this economy, a growing number of teens and their parents cannot afford the costly expense of a prom dress.

This is where DonateMyDress.org comes in — for the many girls who are not fortunate enough to be able to spend that kind of money on a dress, they help them find a donated gown. For more information go to www.DonateMyDress.org.
