If you're a mom, you know.. prom season can be pricey.  One Utah mom is doing something about it.  Alaina Ollerton started "All Doll'd Up".

It's a concept completely driven for charity.  Prom dresses, new or gently used, are donated.  They are then sold at a discounted price.  The idea is that even underprivileged students can afford a gorgeous dress.

Once a dress is sold, 50 percent of the proceeds are donated to a charity of the donor's choice.  If one is not selected, then the proceeds are distributed to a "charity spotlight" that is listed on the website: http://www.alldolldup.org/.

Alaina says she has collected more than 150 dresses so far.

She is also accepting dress shoes and hopes to start collecting wedding dresses soon.
