May 20 was a special day for the young ladies of the 21st Senate District, and surrounding areas, who joined Senator Kevin Parker, in partnership with Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. Delta Rho Omega Chapter, and Shatonia Amee to pick out a stylish prom dress in preparation for their special night of celebration.
The 14th Annual Free Prom Giveaway at Samuel J. Tilden High School was a total success. The event gave the graduates who may not have had the means to afford prom attire, an opportunity to select their own stylish outfits paired with shoes, and accessories.
According to Senator Parker, “Every high school student deserves a memorable prom experience. I am proud to partner with Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. Delta Rho Omega Chapter and Shatonia Amee on my 14th Annual Prom Dress event,” he said, adding. “This occasion serves as a reminder to our youth that we genuinely care about their achievements and career goals and are dedicated to supporting them every step of the way.”
The annual prom giveaway is a significant effort by Senator Parker and Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. Delta Rho Omega Chapter to support students in the community. Senator Parker believes that students deserve to have the opportunity to celebrate prom positively and safely, regardless of their financial circumstances.
