​Braidz N' Thangz  & Beauty of Character Fundraiser:
​ Promoting Power, Purpose, and Poise!
&
Learning To Treat Others With Dignity and Respect.

Salon Know-How Educational & Training Institute’s Braidz N’ Thangz Internship Program (www.braidznthangz.org) provides at-risk young females ages 18-24 with hands-on training and experience in braiding, natural and textured (Black) hair care, and general cosmetology; with a focus to reach those from the BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) diaspora.

The Braidz N’ Thangz Internship Program addresses the following areas: 
  • Provides an alternative pathway for those who may have considered turning to the sex trade for work, leading to sex trafficking and exploitation. 
  • A solution for families and young adults who would like to pursue vocational training by creating paid opportunities to learn while overcoming financial hardships. 
  • A resource for those who want to learn about natural and textured (Black) hair care, which isn’t thoroughly taught in traditional cosmetology programs. 
  • We understand the importance of mental well-being, emotional health and self-esteem and provide resources for counseling, coaching, mentoring and education to participants to develop their interpersonal and intrapersonal skills through “The Beauty of Character” (www.beautyofcharacter.org) curricula.
  • The Braidz N’ Thangz Internship Program is entirely free of charge for participants.
  • We have made progress in improving the lives of those in need, but we request your help to continue pursuing our mission. Your generosity would allow us to continue offering the Braidz N’ Thangz Internship Program and making a difference for our at-risk youth.
