Sponsor A Cartoon Cuts Stylist - Romi
Donation protected
My company, Cartoon Cuts, will match the funds I raise, dollar for dollar, so that I can travel to Thailand to provide free haircutting training to people living in critical poverty.
We have partnered with Hair Aid, an Australian charity founded in 2013. In Thailand, we will teach a five-day haircutting course, enabling trainees to start their own micro-businesses.
Cartoon Cuts has recently started a program to send stylists to join Hair Aid projects in Southeast Asia. In addition to matching the funds I raise ($1,600), dollar for dollar, Cartoon Cuts will also pay me for the time that I am on the trip. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and I am honored to be given the chance to go.
To apply for the program with Cartoon Cuts, we were asked to answer the following question: Why would you want to spend a week training people the skill of cutting hair? Below is my submission:
I would like to invest my time training people to cut hair for a week, because cutting hair is a form of art that could help change an individual's self esteem, and have the power to impact their life. Teaching someone to cut hair has its challenges, but I would love to share my creativity, and I look forward to meeting people through new interactions. Passing down the skill of cutting hair, not only helps share creativity and beauty to the world, but it can help someone find a job to help them financially. They will be able to take care of themselves and their family, which what I have been doing for 19 years.
Thank you for your consideration in donating to this wonderful cause and my trip to help share my skills. Should I be so fortunate as to raise more than $1,600, the additional funds will be used for supplies for the Hair Aid trainees. I promise to help change lives, and share pictures, stories and memories when I return from my trip!
