Marcus Talks About Kutz For Kids

The math is simple:

Free haircuts all year 'round to kids from families that can't afford regular grooming + free books and computers = guaranteed boost in social outcomes

We're proud of our ever-popular Kutz for Kids program, and even more proud that it's helped hundreds of children and families since we launched it last year. Hear Marcus share more detailed info about Kutz for Kids, including why he was inspired to start it.

Coming Soon: Neighborfood Express

The problem: food insecurity

The goal: eliminate hunger

The remedy: Neighborfood Express

We're excited about our new charity food truck service, through which we'll distribute 30,000 free healthy hot meals and grocery bundles to nearly 5000 kids and families living in food insecure neighborhoods.

Check it out as the members of the talented "Dream Team" we've assembled to bring the project to life share why it means so much to them.
