02/09/10 Haircuts for Haiti In Greenwich

Haircuts for Haiti at Becker Salon

A Gift of Shear Love

February 14 and 21, 2010

February 4, 2010 (Greenwich, Conn) --On Valentine's Day, Sunday, February 14 and again on Sunday, February 21, Becker Salon will embark on a special fundraiser, "Haircuts for Haiti," offering haircuts for $50 and donating all proceeds to the American Red Cross Greenwich Chapter for the relief efforts in Haiti. Shampoo and blow dry are included.

For this fundraiser, Becker Salon will open on two Sundays when the salon is normally closed. Becker Chicaiza, salon owner, said his staff is willing to donate their expertise as well as their time on their days off to help this important cause. "The people in Haiti need help desperately, so this is something we can do to contribute," said Chicaiza.

The American Red Cross Greenwich Chapter is grateful for the help. "We appreciate the generosity of Becker Salon," said Joan Irish, CEO of the American Red Cross Greenwich Chapter. "This is a great example of a Greenwich-based business pitching in to support our monumental task of helping Haiti."

Those who may not need a haircut can also purchase a gift certificate for $50 during "Haircuts for Haiti" and the proceeds will also be contributed to the Haiti relief efforts. From February 14 through February 21, a Red Cross donation box will be positioned at the salon for additional donations.

Becker Salon is located at 268 Mason Street in Greenwich. The hours on Sunday, Feb. 14 and Sunday, Feb. 21, are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. To make an appointment, call 203-340-9550. For further information about Becker Salon, please visit www.beckersalon.com.
