Monarch Formals’ mission is dedicated to establishing positive memories during important occasions in one’s life. By receiving new, gently used formals, accessories, and donated services, Monarch Formals makes certain that individuals don’t miss out on important life events because they don’t have the proper attire. Monarch Formals is for EVERYONE!
Monarch Formals (501c3) nonprofit organization is an all-volunteer organization powered by the support of our community.
***We are a sustainable change organization with an aim to reduce waste and extend the life of clothing.
It all starts with the dress. It is a girl’s dream to feel like they are walking on the red carpet for their special event. The national average cost of going to prom continues to be expensive, with the nationwide average being nearly $1200. For those facing hardships, this expense can be a burden and deter high school students from attending this special high school event. This is true for other formal events, including weddings, pageants, school banquets, military events, and other special occasions. Monarch Formals’ goal is to cut the biggest cost to attending these formals: the attire.
Monarch Formals simply ask for individuals who borrow items from our organization to make a monetary donation. These funds help sustain the program and help others in need.
Have you ever borrowed a library book? Borrowing a formal from Monarch Formals is just as easy. Monarch Formals provides this service for all formal events. Monarch Formals is a service that can be used by anyone who wants to attend their formal event in self-confidence and style without any financial burden. It’s not just the dress, it is about promoting self-esteem and individual beauty in those who borrow our formals, and the confidence we can build when we can help supply suits and tuxes for the men. We have formals for all ages, from infant to older adults, and in all sizes. Our charge as an organization is to continue the idea in which the simple loan of formal attire will enhance the dignity and worth of those who receive this service.
The success of Monarch Formals depends on the invaluable support from the volunteers, donors, and community support.
