PLEASE SUPPORT MY "STYLES FOR GRADES" PROGRAM

I'm excited to announce the return of my Styles For Grades and Presidential Programs. They were both established in 2009 to reward academic excellence for students in grades K-12 in the Hampton Roads, VA area, where I resided for 10 years. I wanted to do something to reward students for achieving Honor and Scholar Roll during the school year, in hopes that they would be encouraged to continue getting good grades. I became a partner in education with many area schools and was featured on WTKR (Hampton Roads) News Channel 3's "People Taking Action" segment in January 2011. 

Honor and scholar roll recipients receive free or discounted services for quarterly submissions of their report cards. Students who maintain honor and/or scholar roll for all 4 quarters receive a reusable e-gift code at the end of the school year - these are my Presidential Program participants. I also participate in back to school, homecoming, prom, graduation and other events throughout the school year. 

Last year, we moved from the Hampton Roads area back to my hometown in Richmond, VA. It was a difficult transition with the move and with the change from being in a centralized salon to a full time mobile stylist. I made the decision to put the program on hold last school year. Now that the new school year is under way, it is the perfect time to relaunch and expand the program for K-12 students in Richmond City, Henrico County AND Chesterfield County school districts!

Since I started the program in 2009, I have been using all of my tips and a small percentage of my earnings to purchase the necessary supplies for participants in the program. I started with about 60 participants in 2009 and had grown to about 280 participants in 2012, and I anticipate more students will participate with the expansion to the 3 school districts. Please consider donating to the program. Donations assist with hair, supplies, certificates and other miscellaneous expenses for participants in the program; as well as, participation in back to school, prom, graduation, and homecoming events.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!
