New York City Police Foundation Sponsors NYPD Prom Impact Event

As prom season approaches, the New York City Police Foundation proudly sponsored NYPD Prom Impact—an initiative that ensures students can celebrate this milestone with confidence and style.

The annual event has become a tradition in neighborhoods across New York City. This year, more than 500 students had the opportunity to select free prom attire, from elegant gowns to sharp suits, thanks to generous donations and the dedication of volunteers and New York’s Finest.

The program is the idea of Detective Tanya Duhaney of the NYPD Community Affairs Bureau, who recognized a need to support students who might not otherwise be able to attend prom. What began as a grassroots effort has grown into a citywide event, with the Police Foundation, officers, community members, and local businesses coming together to make prom dreams a reality.

NYPD Prom Impact is more than just a gown or a suit—it’s about celebration, community, and connecting young New Yorkers with the officers who serve their communities. The New York City Police Foundation is proud to support this initiative.
