LAS VEGAS PROM CLOSET DETAILS:
The Las Vegas Prom Closet, hosted by Las Vegas-based nonprofit organization Project 150, aims to provide a memorable and inclusive prom experience for local high school students. This initiative is made possible through generous donations from countless residents and the unwavering support of The Sahara Las Vegas.
This year, Project 150 anticipates assisting more than a thousand local students needing prom attire. The event is free for high school students with a valid student ID, and pre-registration is required. Interested students can register for the event HERE.
Prom is a significant rite of passage for high school students, marking the transition from adolescence to adulthood. It is a momentous occasion for self-expression, celebration, and camaraderie. Every teenager deserves to feel like a glamorous movie star or rockstar on this special night, regardless of their financial circumstances. Join us in making prom dreams come true for Las Vegas high school students.

At Project 150, our mission is to empower and support high school students facing homelessness, and with the generous support of The Sahara Las Vegas, we have found an incredible venue to host this transformative event,” said Kelli Kristo, Project 150 Executive Director.
