The long-standing partnership between St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and MY SALON Suite began with the launch of the Suite Relief Fund™ in 2018. Now, the Suite Relief Fund has raised over $600,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital since the partnership’s inception.

“For the third consecutive year, the MY SALON Suite community rallied together to surpass our goal and raise over $120,000 for St. Jude,” said Stacy Eley, president of Suite Management Franchising. “The majority of donations this year were less than $50, the collective effort and generosity of so many of our Members and their clients adding up to a huge number. With MY SALON Suite's ongoing growth and expanded efforts, we look forward to continuing our support of St. Jude’s life-saving mission and achieving an even greater impact in the years to come.”
