Beauty Industry Emergency Fund
💝 Urgent Need
Missy O'Daniel had to have emergency surgery due to a blockage in her stomach. If nothing had been done, our dear friend Missy would no longer be with us. By the miracle of medicine, surgery, and her will to live, she pulled through and is now peacefully resting at home.
✨ Who is Missy?
For the past 27 years, Missy has been the heart and soul of Allure Salon and Spa. She's not just a salon owner – she's a mentor, friend, and dedicated professional who has transformed countless lives through her work. Whether you've sat in her chair for a beauty treatment or trained under her guidance to elevate your craft in the beauty industry, Missy's impact is undeniable.
💫 Her Impact on Our Community
Throughout her career, Missy has embodied selflessness and dedication. She has:
Trained and mentored numerous beauty professionals
Built lasting friendships with clients and colleagues
Created a welcoming space for everyone at Salon Allure
Supported countless community events through her work
🌟 Current Situation
As many in our industry know, beauty professionals don't qualify for state disability. This means:
No work = No income
Bills continue to accumulate
Household expenses need to be met
Salon overhead costs continue
Missy is the primary financial provider for both her family and salon. During this critical recovery period, she needs our community's support to maintain both.
💕 A Personal Note from Duane Ram
As one of Missy's friends as well as my co-producer of Sacramento Fashion Week, I took it upon myself to reach out for help. Missy's pride makes it difficult for her to ask for assistance, even when she needs it most. Whether you can skip your morning coffee and donate that amount, or if you're able to contribute more, every gift makes a difference in supporting Missy and her family during this challenging time.
