Beauty-n-Motion Walk 4 Wellness is produced by Black BeautyShop Health Foundation, a National grassroots organization that seeks to train and provide ongoing support to participating salons, their clients and surrounding neighborhoods. The goal is to bridge the gap in health disparities within communities across the country concerning African American women and their families.

The mission is to work with community stakeholders to empower Women of Color to take an active role in their total health by understanding and being responsive to their immediate health care needs through education, screenings and promoting healthy living strategies in Black owned beauty shops https://propfinast.com.

“Women are the health CEO of the family,” said Margo LaDrew, Executive Director and Founder of the Black BeautyShop Health Foundation. “Given that black women visit the salon an average of 2.5 times a month, the beauty shop is an ideal place to educate women and equip them with practical tools for improving their family’s health.”

Beauty salons, health organizations, women, teens, men, businesses, nonprofits are invited to participate by creating a team to fun walk, joining a team, becoming a vendor, sponsoring the event or teams or donating items for gift bags or donate funds.
