A Chance To Help Out
Little Dudes-n-Divas Salon in Rochester is holding its first annual “Kids Can Help” food drive throughout the month of November. The food drive will benefit Channel One Food Bank and Food Shelf. Their goal is to fill a Channel One tub at least twice collecting approximately 600 pounds of food. For each three items a child donates, he or she will receive a $5 gift certificate for any Salon service. They will also be entered to win some fabulous prizes (Webkinz, salon services, gift certificates, more). For each additional food item donated over three items, they will receive an additional entry into the drawing. For more info visit www.littledndsalon.com.
