Lakewood, NJ - If you are in need of a salon hair
cut or a day at the spa, then this may be a great opportunity
for you to have a day of pampering and help raise funds for
Kimball Medical Center’s Oncology Unit.
Tiberias Spa and Salon in Lakewood will be hosting a Cut-A-Thon
on Sunday, August 16 from 12 pm to 4 pm. All proceeds
from this event will be donated to Kimball Medical Center
Foundation for the Oncology Unit towards the purchase of
new infusion chairs.
Participants can enjoy a shampoo, cut and blow-dry for $45;
a 15 minute chair massage for $15; a 30 minute chair massage
for $39.95; a manicure for $20; or an eyebrow or lip waxing
for $5. A bake sale and Chinese Auction will also be
available at the salon on that day.
“I am so excited to be hosting this Cut-A-Thon to
help this wonderful Foundation,” said Laura Durso,
Tiberias Salon Manager. “My team is filled
with some of the most generous and hard working people I
have ever met. When I suggested this idea they all
agreed immediately. Cancer has affected all of us in some
way, and we want nothing more then to help in any way we
can,” she explained.
“We wanted to come together as a team for our community
to help raise money,” said salon stylist Tara Kozlowski. “I
am so honored to be a part of a charity event like this.
My father was diagnosed with spinal cancer last June. This
past year has been a lot easier because of organizations
and charity events like this. I wanted to give back so that
I could help another family just as someone had helped mine,” she
explained. “My father has always been very generous
in making donations to various organizations. I would
like to follow in his footsteps,” she said.
The Kimball Medical Center Foundation was created to support
Kimball Medical Center and the programs and services it provides.
The foundation’s accomplishments are funded through
events like the Kimball Golf Classic, as well as contributions
from individuals, corporations, and other donors for state
of the art equipment, facility improvement and programs.
The foundation enjoys the support of thousands of friends,
especially the members of the Kimball Medical Center Auxiliary
Association, whom not only raise funds for the hospital,
but also serve as “ambassadors” in the community.
Tiberias Spa and Salon is located at 475 Route 70 West,
Suite 202. To schedule an appointment for salon and
spa services at Tiberias for the Cut-A-Thon, please call
