Not long ago a simple suggestion turned into a wonderful gift thanks to the generosity of    Angelina Mendez from SVS's Inclusion Center in Torrance.

Angelina, long known for her beautiful wavy, dark brown hair, was
 weighing the pros and cons of cutting her hair. Should she or shouldn’t she?
 Leo Vasquez, Torrance Program Director, then had an idea.

What if  SVS assisted her in getting her hair styled and, as a result, a donation
of her cut hair could be made to "Locks of Love", a program that provides
hair pieces for children stricken with cancer?

As you can see from the photo above she decided "Yes" and the good folks
                                                             at Luigy's Salon did the rest.                                                                                                                          
Angelina is still beautiful and so is her gift.
