What can $10 get you? 🤔
A coffee and a snack.
A quick lunch.
A few little things you probably won't remember a month from now.

But at the Prom Dress Exchange…
$10 can help a young woman find a dress for one of the most memorable nights of her high school years. 👗✨

And with shoes and accessories available too, she can put together a look that feels completely her own at no extra cost.

That's the power of $10.
The Prom Dress Exchange is about making prom more accessible, more affordable and a whole lot more fun. 💕

If Prom Dresses Had Personalities…
We think they'd have a few things to say. 👗😂

✨ One Dress. Endless Possibilities.

That dress hanging in the back of your closet may have been worn for just one special night. By donating it to the Wells County Prom Dress Exchange, you're giving another student the opportunity to make memories, celebrate with friends, and feel their best on prom night.

We gratefully accept donations of gently used formal dresses and accessories throughout the year at the Wells County Foundation.

Thank you for helping make prom more affordable for local students. 💜

Prom fashion has certainly changed over the years!
✨ Which style do you remember?
💃 1980s – Puffy sleeves, bold colors, and lots of sparkle.
💃 1990s – Sleek satin gowns and minimalist styles.
💃 2000s – Bright colors, sequins, and halter necklines.
💃 Today – From elegant classics to bold statement dresses, there's truly something for everyone.

👗 Behind the Seams | How We Organize 500+ Dresses

Ever wondered how shoppers are able to find the perfect dress during the Prom Dress Exchange? It starts long before the event.

Every donated dress is carefully looked over, sorted by size and organized on racks so students can easily browse styles that fit them best. It's a big job, but taking the time to organize everything helps create a stress-free and enjoyable shopping experience.

When the doors open, our goal is for every student to feel like they're shopping in a boutique—not digging through piles of dresses.

A big thank you to the volunteers who make it all happen!
