The Bessie Morris Foundation is dedicated to mentoring, educating, and building self-esteem in at risk girls in the inner-city. Our programs identify low-income girls who exhibit academic excellence, community service, and career ambitions.

Prom Night Dreams

The Prom Night Dreams program is open to all high-school senior girls who are in need of financial assistance to attend their senior prom. All applicants are required to submit an essay, a letter of recommendation, high school transcripts, and to participate in an in-person interview. In order to qualify, applicants must have at least a "C" average and an adjustable to low income level.

The grand prize recipient receives an all-expense paid prom, including a new dress, shoes, accessories, make-up, hairstyle, manicure, pedicure, corsage and boutonniere, chauffeured car, video, photographs, prom tickets and pictures. Two runner-ups will receive a new dress, shoes, and prom tickets. All three young ladies will be given assistance in obtaining scholarships for college or vocational school.
