They are launching their seventh annual Prom Dress Drive from March 24 to April 18, 2025. It’s that wonderful time of year when you can dig through your closet or shop for a fabulous dress to help out local teens.
Join the Dress Drive!
Comerica is teaming up with Jackets for Jobs, a great nonprofit based in Detroit that has been making a difference in our community. This prom dress drive is not just about collecting dresses; it’s about empowering students and making prom accessible for everyone. So, if you have any new or gently used dresses, along with some accessories like jewelry, shoes, purses, or wraps, now’s the time to donate!
Find a Collection Point Near You
The drive will run at nine Comerica banking centers across Metro Detroit, making it super convenient for you to drop off your donations. And hey, since we love a little friendly competition, individuals and businesses are both encouraged to get involved. Last year, folks stepped up big time, donating over 2,600 dresses, and since the drive launched, more than 10,000 dresses found their way into the hands of ecstatic teens. Imagine how many dream nights we can create this year!
A Special Boutique Event Awaits

It’s a fantastic opportunity for individuals and families in need to find that perfect prom dress without breaking the bank. If you’re looking for more details, you can give Jackets for Jobs a call.
Local Heroes: Making Prom Dreams Come True
While we’re on the topic of fabulous contributions, let’s take a moment to spotlight local hero, Isabella Mach, a student from Northville High School. She launched her own organization called A Princess PROMise with the goal of providing gently used prom dresses to other teens in need. After just a short time, her efforts have already collected 56 dresses, 13 pairs of shoes, seven purses, and five suits! That’s some serious dedication!
Community Support Shines Bright
Isabella’s initiative shines a light on how our community rallies together to support each other. She’s even setting up a fitting space in her father’s office for dress fittings and pickups—talk about creativity! The variety of collected items are sure to cater to every style, size, and flavor, ensuring that everyone feels like a prince or princess on their special night.
How You Can Get Involved
So, if you’re in Ann Arbor, Bloomfield Hills, Dearborn, Grosse Pointe, Northville, Novi, Rochester Hills, or the newly added Sterling Heights, you can easily find a place to donate. Comerica Bank has been a pillar in this community for over 175 years, and their dedication to supporting local initiatives is clearer than ever.
Let’s make this prom season unforgettable for our teens in Southeast Michigan. Whether you’re donating or spreading the word, every little bit helps! After all, who wouldn’t want to create a fairytale moment for a fellow community member? So, gather those dresses and accessories, and let’s make dreams come true this prom season!
