Witherite Law Group1-800-TruckWreck and The SWAG Shop are joining together to provide free haircuts to Atlanta youth returning to school this fall.  Witherite Law Group will sponsor more than 160 students to receive a free haircut, valued at approximately $30 each. The free haircuts will be provided to students up to age 18.  This inaugural event is an effort to offset the costs associated with going back to school.  The event is free and open to the public. 

Witherite Law Group will take over two SWAG Shop locations where the first 80 children at each location will receive a free haircut just in time for the first day of school.  

Details are as follows:

Time:  9 a.m. – 5 p.m. ET

Date:  Saturday, Aug. 6, 2022

Locations:

·      The SWAG Shop, 365 Edgewood Ave SE, Atlanta, GA 30312

·      The SWAG Shop, 3461 Roosevelt Hwy, STE 16, Atlanta, GA  30349

Studies have shown that self-esteem is directly correlated with school performance, and proper grooming increases confidence and academic success.  However, many families only have the financial resources for their basic needs.    

“As students prepare to the return to the classroom, they will be faced with higher prices for supplies like shoes, clothes and backpacks because of inflation,” said Amy Witherite, founder of Witherite Law Group and 1-800-TruckWreck.  “With the ‘Barbershop Takeover,’ we hope to offer some financial relief to families and help students look and feel good on the first day of school.”   

Witherite Law Group recently partnered with Walmart to host the “Cash Register Takeover” where they gave away over $10,000 in gift cards to help offset the costs of school supplies.  Lead by Amy Witherite, Witherite Law Group and 1-800-TruckWreck are committed to putting people first, investing in the communities it serves and building bridges of opportunity that create stronger communities.
