Cosmetology for a Cause

Times Jr Reporter  

 

The Strathmore High School Cosmetology class will be holding a fundraiser on Nov. 28-29 at Strathmore High School in order to raise money for a family in need this Christmas season.

This is the fifth year the class has held the fundraiser and this year it is led by Tessa Dorosh and Courtney Davis. 

“All the money that we raise, we spend that on a family for Christmas,” said Cheryl Davidson, a cosmetology teacher at Strathmore High School. “Last year they raised a thousand [dollars] so this year their goal is fifteen hundred.” 

Last year the money was used to “adopt” a family of eleven by purchasing gifts that would be delivered anonymously to the family, as well as supporting two women in need in the community. This year, the class will be supporting families through churches in Strathmore.

The fundraiser will include various salon services such as hair colouring and cuts, perms, manicures, pedicures, and facials. Babysitting will also be provided this year with fun activities planned for the kids. To take part in this event, and book an appointment on Nov. 28 and 29 from 4-9 p.m. Call Strathmore High School at 403-934-3135 and ask for the Cosmetology department.
