Sport Clips Haircuts Collecting School Supplies for Mt. Diablo Unified

Locally owned business doing its part to help out community during back to school

It's Back to School time and everyone is shopping for supplies. Not everyone in our community, however, can purchase all that they need for the coming year. In addition, teachers always welcome extra supplies to help them during the year. That is where Sport Clips Haircuts is helping.

Now until August 26, 2016, Sport Clips Haircuts is collecting school supplies at their Concord, Pleasant Hill and Walnut Creek locations. In exchange, they will give a FREE Haircut ticket that can be used for a future visit. All you need to do is bring in new and unused supplies to one of these locations to claim you free haircut ticket.

What supplies are needed, you might ask? The most popular items are backpacks, calculators, binders, pens and pencils. All of these supplies will be dropped off at the Mt. Diablo Unified School District office at the conclusion of the supply drive. "I think its pretty cool that we are doing something like this.", say Marisol Lares-Acosta, Store Manager of the Concord location. "It shows how much we care about the community."
