Do you have formal wear or accessories that a graduating student could wear?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Putting on the Glitz is a grassroots initiative involving PLEA employees, representatives from Ridge Meadows community service agencies, local business and other partners. We all work together to provide local high school graduates in need with formal attire so that they can attend their graduation festivities with pride. Without such assistance many of these students could not afford to participate in celebrating this important milestone. We are always accepting donations of gently used grad dresses and accessories. And we are always in need of volunteers on the day of the event.
