KEEP BLADE OPEN

Hello everyone,

My name is Eli Simmons Jr , and I'm reaching out to you all with a heavy heart and a plea for help. My father, Eli Simmons Sr, has dedicated his life to his passion for barbering, running his beloved barbershop for over 20 years. However, his journey has recently taken a devastating turn.

Eli Sr has faced career-ending hip surgeries, leaving him unable to continue his work behind the chair. As a result, the financial burden has become overwhelming, threatening the existence of the barbershop that has been a cornerstone of our community for two decades.

Despite the physical and emotional challenges he's endured, my father's commitment to his craft and his customers remains unwavering. His barbershop is not just a business; it's a place where friendships are forged, stories are shared, and memories are made.

Now, more than ever, we need your support to keep this legacy alive. Your generous contributions will go directly towards covering the barbershop's operating expenses, including rent, utilities, and necessary equipment upgrades to accommodate his physical limitations.

Every dollar counts, and no donation is too small. Together, we can ensure that Blade Barbershop continues to be a welcoming haven for our community for years to come.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, generosity, and support during this challenging time.

Warm regards,

Eli Simmons Jr
