Get a haircut, and help Easter Seals while you’re at it
by Beth
Hey, get this: during the month of April you can get your hair cut and help Easter Seals at the same time! All month long, Hair Cuttery will match every donation made in its salons. Customers can donate in any Hair Cuttery salon to support Easter Seals, and Hair Cuttery will match those donations all the way up to $10,000.
Your donations at Hair Cuttery in April will go twice as far to help us Make the First Five Count to support Easter Seals services, early identification, early intervention and screening services.
Dennis Ratner, Founder and CEO of Ratner Companies, parent company of Hair Cuttery, pointed out in a press release that many Hair Cuttery associates have young children and know firsthand how important the early years are for their continued success in life. He’s right. The first five years of life really count, yet every year, more than a million young children with unidentified delays and disabilities enter school with learning and health issues that put them far behind their peers.
That’s why Easter Seals created Make the First Five Count®, to engage parents around the importance of early identification — because children only receive services when parents follow their instincts and take action early if something doesn’t feel quite right. And now, with your donations and Hair Cuttery’s support, Easter Seals will continue to help children and adults with disabilities receive important services so they can live, learn, work and play in their communities.
