The one thing that you are bound to feel with each of these images is nostalgia!
For many, their prom is likely to be one of the most unforgettable days of their school days. It is an initiation into the adult world where we get to dress up and feel like adults.
The former first lady Michelle Obama, who understands the importance of such milestones, decided to use this in a way to share a message. She shared her prom photo and started the #promchallenge as an initiative to "celebrate and recognize 20 high schools across the country integrating voter registration into their schools in the most creative and impactful ways."
