Visit the website for more details and to register. The gown give-away event at the South Chula Vista Library will be held on Saturday, April 14, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., (appointments from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and walk-ins from 2 to 4 p.m.),Tuesday, April 17 and Thursday, April 19, from 3 to 7 p.m. with walk-ins at the same time.

This is the sixth year that the South Library has participated in the Princess Project. Since it began in 2002, more than 20,000 teens have received prom dresses free of charge from the Princess Project.
This annual effort is made possible through invaluable volunteer, donor and community support. Would you like to help these young ladies select the perfect dress? The library needs volunteers for the April dates! Please contact Debbie Taylor to sign up via email or call (619) 585-5772.
