Comerica Bank celebrates decade of Making Teens’ Prom Dreams Come True

DALLAS, January 29, 2025—Comerica Bank will host its 10th annual North Texas Prom Dress Drive, during the month of February at seven participating banking centers. Donations will benefit local teens served by Boys & Girls Clubs of Collin County, Dallas CASA and Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Dallas, who otherwise may not be able to afford formal attire and experience the high school tradition of prom.  

“For nearly a decade, we have partnered with our colleagues, customers and the community to send thousands of teens to the prom, including more than 200 students last year,” said Beatrice Kelly, Comerica Bank Senior Vice President and Director of Community Development Banking. “As the chair of the Comerica North Texas Women’s Forum, being a force for good while empowering young women in our community is at the core of our mission.  We hope to serve a record number of teens through this year’s drive in honor of our 10^th anniversary.”

To meet its goal of helping more teens attend prom, Comerica has added two new locations in 2025:  its Mockingbird-Abrams Banking Center in the East Dallas area and its Preston John Hickman Banking Center in Frisco. Project Beauty also has joined forces with the bank as an official drive partner and will collect dresses and donate beauty swag bags as well as provide a complimentary prom night makeover (full hair and makeup) to one lucky teen from each benefitting agency (three to be selected in total).

Individuals and businesses can drop off new or gently used, cleaned formal dresses (including plus sizes, 20 and up) and accessories (shoes, purses and jewelry) at the following North Texas-area Comerica banking centers:
