YOU CAN HELP: Local stylists headed to Cambodia to offer cosmetology education to at-risk youth

Local salon owner Karie Koltz (above right) and stylist friend Linda Turner (above left) are embarking on a trip to Cambodia to volunteer with Justice and Soul, whose founder Matthew Fairfax is also a West Seattleite. Karie explains, “The foundation provides cosmetology education to at-risk youth and sex-trafficked young men and women. We are going for 4-5 weeks to volunteer our services and teach workshops for the graduates.” The trip is explained here; they’re crowdfunding to help cover the cost and welcoming donations – go here to chip in.

    Wanted to let you know that I went to the site to contribute and decided not to give because PayPal was not an option. I’m not comfortable putting my bank card online…. but PayPal seems to be safe still.
