During the month of April customers can visit Hair Cuttery salons across Connecticut, including the salon in North Haven, to Make the First Five Count to support Easter Seals early identification, early intervention and screening services for children with disabilities like Autism. Customers can donate in any Hair Cuttery salon to support Easter Seals and Hair Cuttery will match every donation made up to $10,000.
“We at Hair Cuttery are proud to be a part of helping to provide support to help Easter Seals deliver early identification, early intervention and screening services to young children in communities nationwide,” says Dennis Ratner, Founder and CEO of Ratner Companies, parent company of Hair Cuttery. “Our associates are truly ready to Make the First Five Count as many of them have young children and we all know how important the early years are for their continued success in life.”
The first five years of life really count. Yet every year, more than a million young children with unidentified delays and disabilities enter school with learning and health issues that put them far behind their peers. That’s why Easter Seals created Make the First Five Count®, to engage parents around the importance of early identification – because children only receive services when parents follow their instincts and take action early if something doesn’t feel quite right.
Hair Cuttery’s mission to help its associates and clients be the best they can be makes the company a great fit with Easter Seals, and with Hair Cuttery’s support, Easter Seals will continue to help children and adults with disabilities receive important services so they can live, learn, work and play in their communities.
“Easter Seals is privileged to work with a company like Hair Cuttery, which values its role as a responsible corporate citizen and gives back to the communities in which it does business,” says James E. Williams, Jr., President and CEO of Easter Seals.” Together, Hair Cuttery and Easter Seals can raise awareness around the importance of early identification and intervention for children during the first five years of life.”
