WHERE CHARITY MEETS GLAM ON PROM DAY
PROM 2018
“To get compliments was not only nice to hear, but also empowering. It made me feel a new confidence in myself that I never knew I could have. That is exactly how I felt on my prom night…and how I still feel today.”
Our Mission THE
The goal of Giving The Glam is to provide a truly memorable, once-in-a-lifetime experience for high school students who may not otherwise have the financial resources to attend their own school prom in a way that makes them feel unique and special. But with Giving The Glam’s help, they don’t just attend their prom, they make a glamour statement. This experience not only improves self-esteem and self-confidence, it also provides an indelible frame of reference to strive for the best of what life has to offer. As a philanthropic organization, Giving The Glam covers all the expenses including attire, hair, makeup, accessories, photography and transportation. Giving The Glam exists to make a positive, confidence-building impact on young lives.

About Us
THE
Giving The Glam (givingtheglam.org) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Massachusetts. It was created and established by visionary philanthropist and noted fashionista Maristela Rapo. Students are selected in coordination with Massachusetts Student Grant Programs including the Metropolitan Council for Educational Opportunity (METCO) and the Boston Police Department’s District B-3 Community Service Officers. We deal with young men and women who all come from different backgrounds and are each being faced with unique challenges. Giving The Glam comes into their lives and helps guide and motivate them to overcome their challenges by building their self esteem and by acquiring a newfound confidence to help them create a viable plan for their own future. Giving The Glam helps financially disadvantaged teens enjoy a top shelf high school prom experience. Each student participant is provided with everything she or he will need to experience their prom in style – gowns, tuxes, accessories, hair and makeup, professional photos, a video, car service to the venue, even a hotel room to get ready for the big event. But in the end, it’s not so much about the clothes, hair and makeup as it is about the rite of passage. From the young person’s point of view, it’s the opportunity and experience of a lifetime. Giving The Glam is making a difference in people’s lives. Perhaps one of last year’s students put it best: “To get compliments was not only nice to hear, but also empowering. It made me feel a new confidence in myself that I never knew I could have. That is exactly how I felt on my prom night…and how I still feel today.”

Season Work Process
THE
While prom season doesn’t come around until May, the Giving the Glam process starts in the first week of January. First, the team helps the candidate choose their tuxedo or dress. The next step is the fitting, and by the middle of March we are done with the fittings and picking of the outfits. From March until April, our team starts accessory hunting, making sure that each candidate is dressed their very best. As May and June come around, the big days finally arrive and the entire Giving the Glam squad comes together for makeup, hair, nails to put the last touches on each outfit! Prom is an unforgettable milestone for these students, and Giving the Glam gives them the opportunity to attend the prom, make life long memories , and build confidence.

Founder I was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I grew up in a very impoverished community and with that came many challenges. There were many times where I couldn’t participate in certain activities because my family simply couldn’t afford it. It was very difficult to feel left out in these situations, as many of my friends were lucky enough to be able to afford these privileges. When I was 17 years old, I saved enough money to leave Brazil and move to Europe where my passion for fashion was officially born! I am the former proprietor of two high-end boutiques, Wolford and Giuseppe Zanotti. After so many years in the fashion industry, I finally found a way to use my fashion expertise to make a difference and give back to all community!

SOCIAL IMPACT Giving the Glam is able to help young financially struggling kids feel included in their high school communities. Far too often these kids are left out of many experiences due to no fault of their own and for them to finally experience this inclusion is an amazing thing to witness. Giving the Glam creates an experience that they will never forget.

NEED Financial constraints put unnecessary burdens on kids and serve to alienate them from the rest of their student body at a time when they most need community at their stage of adolescent development. Giving the Glam attempts to fill this need by giving everyone the opportunity to enjoy their high school prom, regardless of their financial or physical condition. By developing their self-confidence, we prepare these kids for the next chapter in their lives.

Giving the Glam • Prom 2018
Together, we accomplished a lot in 2018.
The Giving the Glam Prom 2018 program accomplished its goal to help one hundred and thirty high school students from twenty-one different schools in Massachusetts. As a result, this group of young people had the ultimate prom experience. The recipients received everything they needed including formal wear, accessories, shoes, make-up, hair styling, photos, and transportation for this most memorable day. Giving The Glam’s goal for 2019 is to provide a memorable prom day for one hundred fifty-five young people.
