Aveda Salons Raise Funds For TCWN In April

Knoxville, Tennessee - As part of their Earth Month celebration, the Aveda Salons across Tennessee will be raising funds for the programs and projects of the Tennessee Clean Water Network.

Aveda has partnered with TCWN since 2013 to advance the cause of clean water for all Tennesseans.  In the last two years, Aveda has raised more than $100,000 for TCWN’s projects including the Bringing Tap Back Fountains Project and the annual Sturegonfest.

“The Tennessee Aveda salons are having fashions shows, markets days and all sorts of fundraising activities to help TCWN strive to meet its goal of clean water for all,” said Renee Hoyos, TCWN Executive Director.  “We really appreciate their support, and we urge everyone to visit an Aveda Salon during April to see how you can help clean up Tennessee waterways that serve as the source of drinking water for millions of our state’s citizens.”

Aveda’s support of TCWN is an outgrowth of its strong commitment to clean water and improving environmental quality in Tennessee.

“The Tennessee Clean Water Network is a valued Earth Month partner with Aveda,” said Londa Kilbarger, Salon Development Partner with the Neill Corporation.  “Their commitment to the Tennessee lakes and streams, as well as providing clean water stations statewide is a worthy cause affecting all the people in Tennessee.”

Here are some of the events and fundraising projects in the Aveda Salons in the Knoxville area:

• All proceeds from the purchase of the famous “Light The Way” candle during April go to support TCWN projects
• “Round-Up for Clean Water” – guests will be able to round up their purchases to benefit TCWN
• Aveda guests will be able to purchase a raffle ticket for the chance to win a spa day or hair makeover with the proceeds benefiting TCWN
• A portion of the sale of Tagua bracelets and keychains and the sale of Blue Oil will go to TCWN

Events that Aveda Salons are hosting in April to benefit TCWN include:

• Earth Day Market for Clean Water hosted by Essentials Salon and Day Spa in Sparta on Sat., April 16 from 10 AM to 4 PM.
• Aveda’s Catwalks for Water Fashion Show a 7 PM, Sat., April 24, 2016, at the Douglas J. Aveda Institute on Gay Street in Knoxville
