Student Volunteer

Pass Down the Gown is a female founded and run 501(c)(3) non-profit that provides free prom dresses nationwide. Our founder, Ruby Franzen, saw a gap and opportunity to grow the formal event experience. Young women (including herself) were buying formal dresses, only to wear them once and then set aside in their closets.

What's the opportunity?

We're looking for a high school students to assist Pass Down The Gown with growing our brand, assisting with social media, finding dresses for our website, fundraising, events, and curating partnerships. This is a remote or hybrid opportunity for people looking to gain experience in a nonprofit. Our volunteer positions are typically a 5-10 hour monthly commitment. Let us know what you can bring to the table and we will be happy to have you!

What would a month at Pass Down The Gown look like?

Each month, volunteers are given a monthly checklist outlining tasks to accomplish on their own time. Some common tasks include planning an event (i.e. photoshoot, fundraiser, pop-up, dress drive, to name a few), hanging flyers, and managing a social media platform (we have TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook). All of our volunteers are matched with a board member/mentor who is current working professionals who can provide support with volunteering, college/job applications, school, and career advice.
