Jada Paul, wife of Los Angeles Clippers point guard Chris Paul, is gearing up for the sixth annual Prom Dress Giveaway and it promises to be a fun and uplifting time for high school girls in Los Angeles.
The annual Prom Dress Giveaway is sponsored by the Chris Paul Family Foundation for 100 young ladies selected by a variety of Los Angeles-based community programs. Each young lady will have the opportunity to select new and vintage jewelry an accessories.
“It’s amazing to see how this event has grown over the past six years,” says Jada. The event starts with a short program where she and two other speakers will talk to the girls with an empowering message. Then there’s a fashion show to preview the dresses that the giveaway has of offer.
Sponsors for the the prom dress giveaway include Winsdor Fashions, Spanx, Steve Madden, Chinese Laundry and Diann Valentine.
“We also do raffles and giveaways. There will be prom hair stations and prom makeup as a little something extra for them to have on top of what they get from the event. Once that’s done the girls are let loose to go shopping. We have dresses, we have shoes, jewelry, there’s purses, there’s spanx and all kinds of stuff. It’s a lot of fun.”
