Utopia strives to help others beat cancer

Utopia Salon and Day Spa cares about helping out in the fight against cancer.  Many people involved with Utopia have been impacted by cancer and the difficulties that can arise from it.  Because of these heartfelt experiences, Team Utopia takes action to make a difference throughout each year to help impact the fight against cancer in a positive and lasting way.  Check out some of the many ways that Team Utopia joins the fight:

Products

October is the official month for Breast Cancer Awareness and we make sure to give our clients the opportunity to join in on making a difference.  During this special fall month, we carry special “Pink” products and a portion of all proceeds from these engaging products goes to the “Susan G Komen for the Cure”, a global leader in the breast cancer movement.  It makes us excited to know that both our clients and our team members can take part in the fight together against breast cancer.  Don’t forget to stop in and take part in our shopping gala event for cancer to kick off the holiday season on October 25th.  There will be tons of great deals and a chance to win a fantastic basket worth over one thousand dollars.

Salon Events

Each year we strive to put on several fun, exciting, and productive events for the benefit of those who are struggling to beat cancer.  Sometimes it is a rambunctious casino bus trip turning a fun weekend night out into a great help for others too.   Other times it is a nice social gathering at the salon with beautiful spreads of food, discounted products, gift baskets, and lots of great conversation.  At Utopia, our great events and the people who attend them have raised thousands of dollars for a great cause.

Relay for life

When July rolls around, Team Utopia knows it’s time to give it our all at the 24 hour Vancouver Relay for Life.  Since the salon’s inception we have been annually committed to setting up tents, staying awake, raising lots of money, and remembering those we love.  Not only do we get to make a difference but this awesome event by the Cancer Society of America makes a difference in our lives as well.  A very special time for all of us is during the “Luminaria”.  During this time people light candles in bags that they have decorated in honor of those they support.  It is an enlightening time to reflect on the fact that people are important and they come first.

Locks of Love & Pantene Beautiful Lengths

“Locks of Love” and “Pantene Beautiful Lengths” are organizations that receive donated hair for the creation of the highest quality hair pieces so that people can still have style during their trial.  We are proud to donate our time and skill each year at the Relay for Life for Locks of Love.  It is always one of our highlight moments at the Relay as is it is full of fun and excitement each time.   And we don’t stop there.  We take hair donations for both Locks of Love and Pantene Beautiful Lengths year ‘round so that we can touch people who may be far out of our reach from all over world.

At Utopia we know that people matter most.  Our families, our team members, and our clients mean the world to us.  This is why we constantly strive to make our clients experience a peaceful escape from the day.  This is why we give back to the community through fundraising, time and effort.  Now you can join us in the fight against cancer as well as join us for a relaxing day of beautification.
