MINNESOTA SCHOOL OF COSMETOLOGY PARTNERS WITH GREAT CLIPS TO SUPPORT CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL

College to donate proceeds from Cut-a-thon to hospital’s School Re-entry Program

MINNEAPOLIS (Sept. 24, 2014) – Minnesota School of Cosmetology will partner with Great Clips for its annual Cut-a-thon to offer donation haircuts Sept. 26-27 at its Woodbury and Plymouth campuses. All proceeds from haircuts on those days will be donated to the School Re-entry Program at Children’s Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota. The program, which is funded by Great Clips, was established in 1983 and helps children and teens with challenging medical problems address issues of returning to school. Specialists help decrease classmates’ fears, model appropriate, respectful language to describe a health problem, and help decrease the likelihood of rumors or teasing.
