Great Lengths Cut-A-Thon for Sick Kids’ Hospital

Yes, it’s only March, but we are gearing up already for our third annual SickKids Cut-A-Thon!


Every June, the team at Great Lengths opens on a Sunday and offers regular-priced haircuts and mini-makeovers with proceeds going to the SickKids Hospital Foundation. But it’s not just haircuts—we make it a party! Last year guests enjoyed a BBQ and bake sale, and everyone got a goodie bag valued at over $40.

Watch our blog and our Facebook page for more information on this year’s Cut-A-Thon.

To learn more about the wonderful work that SickKids has done since its founding in 1875, we invite you to read its history. The hospital began in a rented 11-room house, but demand for its services quickly grew. Over the years, SickKids was involved in groundbreaking research and initiatives to improve public health, including the push for pasteurization of milk, the invention of Pablum, and new surgeries for children with heart defects and dislocated hips.

Great Lengths Hair Gallery is thrilled to support the vital work done at SickKids. We hope to see you at our Cut-A-Thon in June!
