Even as Nurture offers the best in experience and professional salon styling for every client we have, we know we have more to give. We host events at local restaurants to raise funds and awareness for specific causes, including a Blanket Party at the Playwright, where our clients who came to enjoy the night brought a blanket to be donated to the Pine Street Inn and other organizations. Nuture’s dedicated staff also donates their time in the Spring and Fall to host a make-over event for over 17 inner–city young people, and provide hair and make-up for a fundraising fashion show.

In addition to supporting our local charities, church groups, and youth sport teams, Nurture also contributes to the following charities:
