Some DIY Event Highlights from the Winter!

Whip Salon Breakthrough T1D Fundraiser

• The Salon did contribute 10% of all service sales across all locations to Breakthrough T1D (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) on Tuesday, November 14th in honor of National Diabetes Day to the search for a cure of T1D. Their staff wore blue across all 7 locations and ended up raising 1,300 dollars for Breakthrough T1D on the day!

The Little North Pole

• One of these events started over 27 years ago and has grown into the event of the winter holiday season. The Mure Family hosts the Little North Pole, a festive afternoon filled with special entertainment, food, and toys, aimed at raising both dollars and awareness to drive Breakthrough T1D’s mission. From spending hundreds of hours decorating, to securing live performances and food, the Mure Family works around the clock to make sure the Little North Pole is a success. Since its inception, the Little North Pole has raised over $2.5 million for Breakthrough T1D!
