Back2School Haircuts
Every Year we provide FREE Back2School Haircuts. Below are just a few highlights.
The Start
​
Back2School Haircuts starting in 2007 with a small church wondering how we could reach out into our community to share the simple message that somebody cares. We came up with FREE Back2School Haircuts .
​
The first year we had just a little over 30 kids sign up and we partnered with a local salon to do the cutting. We had just 3 beauticans that year and got the job done.
​
Each and every year this event has gotten bigger and bigger, with last year over 500 FREE haircuts and over 22 beauticans giving of their time and evening to come and cut hair.
We are continuing to add events and reach our community in new ways every year.
