Local business raising funds for School District backpack program


One local salon is working to highlight local students’ lives by raising funds for a program that provides healthy food for low-income students. Studio G has been fundraising for the Lennox School District’s BackPack Program, which is a program that sends backpacks or bags of nutritious food home with children during the weekend when school meals are not available.

To help give back to the community through this program, the stylists at Studio G started up a raffle that will conclude at the end of the month with all of the proceeds raised being given to the Lennox BackPack program.

Owner of Studio G, Gail Benning stated, “I know there’s quite a few kids that can benefit from it, so anything to help those little kiddos out.”

Tickets are available at Studio G for purchase to be entered into the raffle.

There are two prizes up for grabs: a Keratherapy Smoothing Treatment and a Mid-Day Escape Package, both of which are valued at $250. The Keratherapy treatment involves utilizing keratin to condition and repair hair while the Mid-Day Escape Raffle includes a cut, color, WOW Dream Coat, wax, and manicure.

The pricing for the tickets are as follows: $1 = 1 Ticket, $5 = 6 tickets, $10 = 12 Tickets, $20 = 25 tickets.

The drawing will take place on January, 31.
