the bella project
Sep 16 
autumn is being spent decluttering my space and finding new homes for no longer loved goods so news that the bella project will be spending saturdays at alliway for a month long dress donation drive means a match has finally been made for a cocktail dress too pretty to be dispatched to goodwill.
the oahu non-profit collects gently worn party frocks, accessories, and cosmetics (brand new, please) year-round and opens a fully stocked pop-up shop every spring. local high school students are invited to enjoy a boutique experience complete with personal shopper for a prom princess makeover no matter their family budget.
donation guidelines request dresses be on trend, in good condition, and fresh from the cleaners. nothing to share? volunteers are also needed to staff events, be bella boutique personal shoppers, and donated salon services to assist with prom day primping are also welcome.
in exchange for your donation, alliway will gift you with a 20% off coupon so you can treat yourself to a new lovely.
- when: sat @ 1p to 4p - sep 19/26 & oct 3/10/17/24
- where: alliway, ward warehouse
p.s. off-island? mail-in donations are also appreciated. click here for more details.

Thank you for posting this! I'd heard about this project but had some trouble getting info on when/where donations would be accepted. One of my sisters and I will be putting together dresses and shoes to donate - and I wear a size 11 shoe, so I know how hard it can be to find nice size 11 heels. I've got a pair I wore as a bridesmaid that are lovely but too formal for me to wear again.
aloha mk! isn't the bella project a lovely idea? so happy to help your pretty little things add a little sparkle to prom night.
