SEATTLE — Beauty professionals in Seattle are partnering with local nonprofits to help those experiencing homelessness access some of the most basic services.
The Beyond Project is a collection of hair stylists, barbers, makeup artists, massage therapists, and others in the beauty industry that volunteer their time to give back to the community.
The Beyond Project has partnered with over 30 nonprofits since 2013 in the greater Seattle area. It aims to bridge the gap between beauty professionals and nonprofits that could utilize their services.
