02 May Salons Unite for the Children of Starlight
PRESS RELEASE
May 2017
SALONS UNITE FOR THE CHILDREN OF STARLIGHT
FROM FRIDAY 5th MAY, 2015
Proudly supporting Starlight Children’s Foundation, Esteem Hair Beauty Spa, in collaboration and together with the Australian Hairdressing Council, are working together in the industry fundraising initiative, ‘Salon Select Smiles for Starlight’.
Every minute of every day a child is admitted to a hospital in Australia, and for thousands of these children and their families, this admission will change their lives forever. Starlight is there to brighten the lives of these seriously ill children, turning fear, pain and stress into joy, fun and laughter and now so are hairdressing salons around the country.
To celebrate and align with national Starlight Day, the ‘Salon Select Smiles for Starlight’ initiative will commence on Friday 5th May and continue for the entire month of May. During this time, Esteem Hair Beauty Spa will be joining forces with more than 200 other hairdressing salons across the country to help raise $100,000 and grant life-changing Starlight Wishes to seriously ill children and their families in Australia. A Starlight Wish is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for a seriously ill child and their family and is the gift of hope during the toughest of times.
In order to make this incredible goal a reality, Esteem Hair Beauty Spa will be giving clients the opportunity to help spread the smiles during the month of May by simply adding $1 to any hair service at point of transaction.
Although this may seem like small change for some, Esteem Hair Beauty Spa believes that as a community, we can work towards big change to replace pain, fear and loneliness with joy, fun and laughter for the Starlight kids.
To show your support for this national fundraising initiative, and help Esteem Hair Beauty Spa Penrith NSW give the gift of a smile, please contact Esteem Hair Beauty Spa on (02) 47223250 to book in for an appointment during the month of May.
