Look Good... Feel Better

I've been looking for a group to volunteer with for a good long while, trying to figure out how I can help improve peoples quality of life with my makeup and skincare tips. I was lucky to meet a woman while I was working who was affiliated with the group Look Good... Feel Better. I had never heard of them, have you?

Long story short, I went and was certified to run these classes for cancer patients. I will teach them makeup and skincare tips and practices so they can feel great about themselves. Donations are sent by many companies and each participant is given a (product neutral) makeup kit to take home with them. I am so pumped to start! I found out that this program is run internationally by the American Cancer Society and anyone can sign up to help, not just licensed estheticians, like me.

Sound like something you'd be interested in? if you're not licensed you can go to these classes and provide moral support, set up the stations for the participants and just lend a hand. If you feel this is something you'd like to do, or that you'd like to volunteer Look Good... Feel Better or for one of the many other programs offered, here are some resources to help you on your way.
