Becca's Closet began when a Florida Nova High School Student Rebecca Kirtman noticed that some of her classmate could not afford to go to prom or homecoming. She collected over 250 dresses on her own, giving them to girls in need out of her own closet. When she was killed in a car accident, her family and friends made her dream their mission. Now with over 75 chapters active across the world, thousands of girls are able to receive dresses completely free of charge. Rebecca Kirtman left a great legacy of helping others. Our Metro Atlanta Chapter based out of McEachern High School is working hard to see that we reach as many girls as possible!
