for students in need!
Every spring, thousands of students across the country celebrate a rite of passage: PROM.
Operation Prom National Network is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that helps low-income students attend their proms by providing free prom dresses and tuxedos.
The average cost of a Prom ticket is $120 in the U.S., so every penny helps. Please donate to help us help teens in need. Your donation is 100% tax deductible.
Operation Prom National Network is based in New York, but has locations all over the United States including Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Louisiana, Georgia, and Indiana. 100% of the staff is made up volunteers. No one at OPNN takes a salary. Operation Prom Nation Network is partnered with several community organizations, including departments of social services, churches, and hospitals.
Realizing that there were no organizations to help students in her community attend prom, Noel D’Allacco, a native of Yonkers, New York, founded Operation PROM. Now, 20 years later, the Operation Prom National Network, Inc. is a resource for students, parents, and schools to find organizations and community groups that can provide free formal wear to teens in need, across the U.S.
As a leader in her community, Noel has been named one of Westchester County’s (NY) top 40 business leaders under 40, and has received many awards for her community service. She has been featured on national news outlets such as ABC, CNN, Fox, and NBC. In addition to her role at the Operation Prom National Network, she works with other local non-profits including the Women’s Enterprise Development Center. She has been an Assistant Professor for the School of Business at the College of Westchester for the past 16 years.
