StreetCuts Barber is an organization that provides free haircuts or haircuts by donation to folks who wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford them.

The service has been offered from a trailer in parking lots, but with the cold weather, StreetCuts Barber has approached St. Aidan to explore a possible collaboration.

The Vestry of St. Aidan has agreed to a trial for three sessions from 11:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m. The first trial was October 20. The last trial date is today. These sessions are designed to discern whether the collaboration can work.

The primary need is for someone to liaise with Jason and Erin from StreetCuts Barber and provide support through the hair cutting time.

If you are interested in learning more, please contact Ian O’Brien or Rosalyn Poettcker.
