The other day, a gentleman stopped by for one of our Haircuts of Hope events before heading to an apartment interview.

 

After his haircut, volunteers from The United Effort took Ron to meet a potential landlord. They later shared that his fresh haircut made a noticeable difference—boosting his confidence and leaving a strong impression. Wei and Charlie believe Ron has a great chance at securing the apartment (we’ll share an update soon!).

​

Jorge, another Haircuts of Hope guest at Hope’s Corner, told us how much it matters to him too. After getting a Seeds of Hope haircut, he notices people treat him differently—no longer crossing the street to avoid him. For him, that’s a big deal.

​

As we work toward building a community of homes like Austin’s Community First Village, we’re so pleased to get to know our unhoused neighbors and making a positive difference in their daily lives.  And who knows—maybe some will one day call our future community home.

​

Many thanks to all our contributors - financial and volunteer - who help with this effort.​

​

Almost 1,500 free haircuts, a $30,000 value, later, we're just starting!
