Glitz, Glam and Gowns
A free formal dress shopping event for teen girls in foster care in Alabama.
What is Glitz, Glam and Gowns?
Glitz, Glam, and Gowns is a FREE Formal Dress Shopping event for teen girls in foster care in Alabama. All girls in grades 9th-12th are invited to join us for a red carpet event to help them get what they need for their special spring events! They do not have to be planning to attend a prom or dance to take part in Glitz, Glam, and Gowns!
Our heart behind this event.
Our heart behind this event is to allow girls to allow girls to feel the beauty that everyone else gets to see. It is a means of boosting the confidence of these teenage girls and celebrating their inner and outer beauty. It is our heart that these young women are able to see themselves as Christ sees them.
How to get involved?
Donations of new or gently used, good condition formal gowns are needed. We collect these dresses in January and February every year. We need all sizes and styles, and we ask that dresses are typically not older than 10 years to keep up with style trends. Sizes 0-26+ are needed, with sizes 10 and up most requested.
Donations can be dropped off at BigHouse Foundation, 112 N. 16th St. in Opelika Monday- Thursday from 9-5PM.
