Our guest for episode 6 is Sally Shaughnessy, the operations lead for Bella Boutique, a non-profit based in Denver that provides free formalwear to teens in financial need. She has worked with Bella since 2015. Sally is committed to improving her local community and has been involved with non-profits and volunteering for twenty plus years, since her college days in Western Massachusetts.
Prom can cost a teenage girl over $1,000 on average when you factor in a dress, shoes, jewelry, purse, hair, and makeup as well as the ticket, transportation and floral expenses. Middle- and lower- class families cannot always afford this. Bella Boutique has stepped up and been there for these families since 2014.
There are very few organizations doing it quite the way Bella is - completely free and totally comprehensive. They distribute prom and homecoming gowns, tuxedos, shoes, accessories and vouchers for free hair and makeup to teens on free and reduced lunch or facing transient financial hardship. They are based in Denver and have had students drive from all over the state of Colorado and as far as Montana, Nebraska and Wyoming.
