When Julie Howes of Salon Services, a local beauty distributor, first heard that her good friend and one of her top clients Dayna Cakebread's young daughter, Stella, had recently been diagnosed with leukemia she was saddened, shocked... and determined to help. Dayna is the owner of Portland's Belle Epoque Salon, and is well known and respected in the salon community. As a small business owner Dayna and her family are rightfully concerned about how to cover the mounting medical bills that will surely accompany the diagnosis.
When Julie heard the news of Stella's illness she says she was, "shocked to say the least, and as a mother myself, even more so." It didn't take long for Julie to get involved, "After learning the news," Julie went on to say, "a very close friend of Dayna's, Amanda Williams jumped into action: immediately orchestrating support for Dayna. Amanda and I both agreed that we needed the salon community's help and support."
Thus was hatched the plan to host a "Cut-a-Thon," a fundraiser among salons where stylists donate the entire proceeds from their day's services to a worthy cause, in this case helping Stella's family pay her medical expenses.
We raised $17,885 through the AMAZING hairdressing community in Portland.
20 salons and 61 individual stylists, donated their time to raise funds and lend support to Dayna, Stella and their family.
