Washington, DC (PRWEB) May 26, 2005 -- The Society of Recovering Sorority
Girls, though its founders, Kristina “Morgan” Rose and Deandra “Brooksie” Brooks
commend the philanthropic spirit of recovering sorority girls everywhere and
announce the results of their 2nd annual “Project Cinderella.” “Project
Cinderella” is a formal dress donation drive that provides high school girls in
need with a dress to wear to their school’s prom.
For the past two
years, the Recovering Sorority Girls have partnered with the Arlington, Virginia
public schools and donated dresses for Arlington’s popular “Formals for Five”
program. After issuing a national challenge via their website, www.recoveringsororitygirls.com, Morgan and Brooksie saw a 60%
increase in donations from recovering sorority girls this year.
“It’s
great to see how recovering sorority girls everywhere really embraced their
philanthropic spirit,” said Morgan. “This year’s dresses show that our members
responded with quantity and quality.
“This year the dresses literally
came from coast to coast,” added Brooksie. “We have to give a special thank you
to our donors from San Diego, California, who provided 9 dresses to the
Arlington project.”
Morgan and Brooksie have been touched by the media
interest in the project and note that interest has come from the local area and
from locations as far away as Jackson, Tennessee.
“We attribute the
strong interest in this project to the fact that it involves young people”
stated Morgan. “Who doesn’t want to play Fairy Godmother to a girl at prom
time?” she asked.
Based on the level of interest outside the D.C. area,
Morgan and Brooksie urge recovering sorority girls outside of D.C. to contact
them via their website for advice on setting up new Project Cinderellas in their
own areas.
“We would love to build this project into several national
projects,” stated Brooksie. “Prom 2005 may be almost over, but it’s not too
early to think about launching a project of Prom 2006.”
