DALLAS, January 23, 2020 /3BL Media/ - Comerica Bank will host its sixth annual Prom Dress Drive, benefitting Dallas CASA and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Dallas, during the month of February.  Six Dallas-area Comerica banking centers, including its newest location in the Snider Plaza area, will serve as drop-off locations for new or gently-used, cleaned formal dresses and accessories. 

Donations will benefit local teens, who otherwise may not be able to afford formal attire and experience the high school tradition of prom.  Comerica has donated close to 4,000 dresses to Dallas CASA and Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Dallas in the last five years.

About Dallas CASA

Dallas CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) trains and supervises community volunteers who advocate for the best interests of children who have been removed from unsafe homes. On any given day, more than 2,600 Dallas County children live in the protective care of the state due to abuse or severe neglect.  Supported by professional staff, volunteers gather information and make recommendations to help judges decide the services each child needs to heal from trauma and the best outcome for a safe and permanent home.  For many foster children, a CASA volunteer is the only consistent, caring adult during a frightening, uncertain time. Today, Dallas CASA is serving more than 9 out of 10 Dallas County children in protective care.  More than 1,500 Dallas CASA volunteers were assigned to advocate for children during 2019.  Now in its 40th year, Dallas CASA depends on the generosity and the commitment of the community to make sure every child in need has a CASA volunteer advocate.
