Save Money and Give Back

Hey Party People! In these financially turbulent times, it's more important than ever that we take care of each other, find fun and happiness where we can and save as much money as possible! To that end, I'm bringing you news of a great organization called Becca's Closet.

Started by a 16-year-old named Rebecca Kirtman, this organization provides formal dresses and menswear to high school students without the resources to attend prom or homecoming. There is also a college scholarship fund associated with this organization. Learn more about these three $1000 scholarships here.

Rebecca died in a tragic auto accident in 2003, but her dream lives on through this organization and people like you who have spread it throughout the United States. While there are currently 96 chapters in 30 states, there is clearly still need. Get a chapter started in your town. Or get the Senior girls to donate the dresses they wore during Junior prom. It's not like they're going to wear them again. Plus, it'll look good on your college apps.

Thank you, Becca for your generous spirit and inspiring life.
