Empowering Youth, One Dress at a Time: Inside the Generation to Generation Prom Project

April 21, 2025 • Liz Herrera • Season 9 • Episode 88

In this inspiring episode, I reconnect with Sandra Díaz, Operations Manager at RE/MAX Partners and founder of the Generation to Generation Prom Project. Sandra shares how her personal journey as a teen mom led her to create a community-driven initiative that provides prom attire, mentorship, and resources to high school students.

Now in its fourth year, the project has expanded to Puerto Rico and includes raffles, classic car rides, and resource tables to support students beyond prom. Sandra emphasizes the power of following your heart, building community, and starting small to make a big impact.

Key Highlights:

Sandra blends her career at RE/MAX with her passion for service and community initiatives, including spearheading the Generation to Generation Prom Project.
The Generation to Generation Prom Project provides students with dresses, suits, accessories, and creates space for mentorship, encouragement, and access to college and career resources.
Sandra encourages others to start their own initiatives by following their purpose, even if they begin small or feel uncertain.
Listeners can support the project by donating dresses, suits, gift cards, or volunteering their time and skills or simply by spreading the word and sharing the event info with students and families.
