   Crimson hearts Community



     Here at Crimson Hair Studio, we love Philadelphia, the people of our community, and when opportunities arise in which we are able to give back.  We wanted to take a moment to mention some of the great Organizations we have had the pleasure of working with over the past few months as well as some of the great Organizations our clients have founded or are involved with.



       Style Me Hired - "Style Me Hired gives free makeovers to men and women who are temporarily out of the workforce and are seeking employment. Over the past 2 years Style Me Hired has given hundreds of free makeovers to the unemployed to give them hope and restore their confidence as they seek employment. Through the years we have collected many inspirational stories of success, hope, restoration, healing, and happiness. It’s these amazing stories that continue to inspire us to Change Lives one Makeover at a Time."  

     The Crimson crew donated their time and skills last month, providing updated looks and styles for women hand-selected to participate in the Style Me Hired Program.  It was inspiring to see how a little kindness and a fresh look were able to provide these brave women with great confidence.  We wish them the best of luck as they re-enter the work force and set out on their career paths!! http://www.stylemehired.com/





     Locks of Love - As we mentioned in our last blog post, a client was in recently to donate 10 inches of her beautiful blonde hair to Locks of Love.  "Locks of Love is a public non-profit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children under the age of 21 suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis.  They meet a unique need for children by using donated hair to create the highest quality hair prosthetics."

     Locks of Love accepts donation throughout the year and are an excellent organization.  Hair needs to be 10 inches long and we will gladly do the cut here at Crimson and help you get it sent to the proper place! in. http://www.locksoflove.org/




     Clothes-Pin - Founded and run by a long time client of the Hair Studio's, Clothes-pin is a Center City Philadelphia non-profit organization that collects and distributes clothing to those in need.  "Via major sporting venues, volunteers collect, sort and distribute articles of clothing and sneakers to men's, women's and family shelters, local to each event.  Since witnessing the discarding of clothing at a major marathon in 2007, Clothes-Pin has collected and donated in excess of 65,000 articles.  Efforts are made possible by the generosity of the running community, partnering organizations, dedicated staff and our amazing volunteers, comprised of corporate groups, high school students, collegiate sports teams, friends, family and neighbors."  

     Crimson Hair Studio is proud to be a sponsor of this great organization.  To learn more and find out how you can help please visit: http://www.clothes-pin.org/



     Crimson Hair Studio prides itself on giving back  to a Community that has welcomed us with open arms.  In addition to the aforementioned Organizations, we have donated services to and helped sponsor events held by local schools and foundations near and dear to our hearts and also to the hearts of our clients.  We welcome possible future opportunities and thank all who we have worked with in the past!!
