People are being encouraged to help send children in care to their prom.
The City of Wolverhampton Council has launched a fundraiser to raise money to put towards prom outfits for 60 children in care.
Councillor Jacqui Coogan said the initiative would allow those in year 11 to celebrate their successes with friends and teachers "creating lifelong memories".
Coogan added: "For many of these young people, prom is a significant part of their educational journey, marking the end of their time at school and the beginning of the next chapters in their lives."
She said: "All donations, no matter how big or small, will be hugely appreciated and will make a remarkable difference to the young people we care for."
