This is from the VFW:
As veterans return home, they face numerous obstacles as they
transition back into civilian life, including finding a career. In 2013,
Sport Clips proudly partnered with the VFW to expand the focus of our
national "Help A Hero" fundraising campaign to introduce the VFW's "Sport Clips Help A Hero Scholarship" program.
By providing scholarships for use at post-secondary schools, including
trade schools, our goal is to continue our strong support of the
military, while making the transition from military ife to the civilian
workplace a little easier.
Help us provide the gift of scholarships to our nation's heroes and
reach our fundraising goal of $600,000! Donate to Help A Hero at Sport
Clips locations nationwide now through Veterans Day, November 11. And,
make your haircut count on Veterans Day, when Sport Clips will donate $1
from every hair care service to the program. To donate online, click here.
Although our scholarship recipients' career aspirations vary, these
men and women all share a common desire to make a difference - this
time, as civilians - and succeed for themselves, their families, and
their country.

In addition to supporting Help A Hero, many Sport Clips locations
will offer free haircuts to active-duty U.S. service members and
veterans on Veterans Day, Tuesday, November 11, 2014, with valid proof
of service. For a list of participating stores, cliick here. Please contact your local Sport Clips for more information.
