YouthCare Fundraiser @ VAIN Beauty World!
Happy holidays, VAIN Beauty World!
We're happy to announce our partnership with YouthCare this season to help support Seattle's growing population of homeless youth. From December 5th-14th stylists at all three of our locations will be offering YouthCare haircuts in which 100% of the service total will be donated to YouthCare and the Orion Center in order to provide necessities, gifts and cold weather items for homeless youth. Our waxing specialist and makeup artist, Belinda will also be donating four brow waxing appointments for our YouthCare Fundraiser.
If you would like to schedule an appointment with a Belinda or a stylist offering YouthCare haircuts, feel free to give us a call at VAIN downtown (206) 441-3441, VAIN West Seattle (206) 535-2595 or VAIN Ballard (206) 706-2707 to inquire about availability, or stop by the front desk in person at any of these locations and pick up a pamphlet about YouthCare services.
YouthCare is an amazing organization that focuses specifically on providing food, shelter and safety to those who have been affected by homelessness and instability. As temperatures drop and the holiday season approaches, it's especially important to keep these youths in mind.
If you're interested in becoming more involved with YouthCare in Seattle or making a donation, feel free to contact YouthCare via email at donations@youthcare.org or telephone at (206) 204-1412. Donations can be made online or delivered in person Monday-Friday from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. at 2500 NE 54th St. Also visit Amazon.com to find YouthCare's holiday wish list.
