MY SALON Suite has raised $123,744 in aid of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital through the brand’s Suite Relief Fund, an annual fundraiser in honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
The salon suite franchise surpassed its initial goal of raising $120,000 through generous donations from clients, members, franchise partners, vendors and the management franchising team.
Continued support through donations helps St. Jude provide treatment, travel, housing and food to more than 400,000 kids with cancer around the world each year, at no charge to their families.
“At MY SALON Suite, we believe in the beauty of giving back, and I am extraordinarily proud of our community for raising over $120,000 for St. Jude for the second year in a row,” said Stacy Eley, president of Suite Management Franchising. “Year after year, we continue to surpass our fundraising goals to help St. Jude carry out their life-saving mission. As MY SALON Suite continues to grow and expand our efforts, we look forward to continuing to make a difference.”
Suite Management Franchising, the parent company of MY SALON Suite and Salon Plaza, launched the Suite Relief Fund in 2017 and began its partnership with St. Jude the following year.
Over the last five years, more than half a million dollars has been raised and donated for St. Jude through the Suite Relief Fund. Additionally, the Suite Relief raises funds for other causes, including aiding MY SALON Suite Members affected by natural disasters through the Professional Beauty Association’s Disaster Relief Fund.
Aid has also been disbursed to MY SALON Suite Members affected by Hurricane Harvey, Hurricane Ida, Hurricane Ian, recent St. Louis flooding and other natural disasters.
