| COMMUNITY |
| "Our children don’t often tell us in words how the haircuts we give them make them feel, but you can see by their actions how caring for them changes their outlook. Our children have experienced physical and sexual injuries to their bodies in addition to emotional injuries to their minds. Haircuts and styling are one way we show them that their bodies are theirs and deserve respect and care. Children who have never cared about themselves begin to ask to use the products provided by Rob’s Barbershop Community Foundation to do their hair. They start to believe they are worthy of the love and care we give them and build on this foundation of self-respect for their healing and growth. Thank you for supporting our partnership with Rob’s Barbershop Community Foundation as we make this transformation possible for the children of St. Vincent’s Center ". Beth Zeitler, Development Associate St. Vincent's Center |
| What we do. Rob's Barbershop Community Foundation (R.B.C.F) administers funds contributed by individuals, corporations, private foundations, government agencies and federated campaigns back into the community in the form of grooming equipment/products and grooming services. These products and services are directed to projects at residential, transitional and emergency housing facilities. These projects ensure that those who are homeless, in treatment or wards of the State attend job interviews, work and/or school with a neat and clean appearance. How we do it. R.B.C.F. funds are managed by a team of experienced professionals. These funds are held in a "Donor Account" and expended based upon the donor choice of grooming project (s). The process begins when you contact us to arrange your gift or view our other creative options to donate. Advantages of giving to the R.B.C.F. The R.B.C.F. has the ability and a proven track record of matching resources with one of Maryland's most overlooked community needs. Unlike larger community foundations, a donor may establish a gift of ANY SIZE to become an underwriter of one or more of our projects. Our donors are able to select the grooming project of their choice and then enjoy directing their funds in a manner that fulfills their charitable wishes. Our choice of projects offers a direct service to the public, thereby allowing the most value for each gift. By establishing a gift with us you can receive maximum tax advantages as well as a number of other donor benefits. |
