About this Event

In the heart of Kingston, Ontario, the initiative "Trimming Compassion" embodies the spirit of empathy and support, extending a helping hand to those in need through the simple act of a haircut. This project is a testament to our community's commitment to ensuring that everyone, regardless of their circumstances, has access to basic necessities and the dignity of self-care.


Kingston, like many cities, is home to individuals and families facing financial hardship and homelessness. For these individuals, the cost of a haircut may be an expense they cannot afford, yet the need to feel presentable and respected remains essential for their well-being and sense of dignity.


"Trimming Compassion" seeks to address this need by offering free haircuts to the needy in our community. By partnering with local barbershops, hair salons, and volunteers, we create a welcoming and inclusive environment where individuals can receive a professional haircut at no cost.


Beyond the physical act of cutting hair, "Trimming Compassion" provides a space for individuals to feel valued and cared for. A fresh haircut can boost self-esteem and confidence, empowering individuals to face life's challenges with renewed resilience and optimism.


Moreover, "Trimming Compassion" fosters connections within our community, bridging divides and breaking down barriers. As individuals sit side by side in the barber's chair, they share stories, experiences, and moments of solidarity, creating a sense of belonging and understanding.


Through "Trimming Compassion," we not only address the immediate need for haircuts but also open doors to additional support and resources. Whether it's connecting individuals with housing assistance, job training programs, or mental health services, we strive to holistically support the well-being of our neighbors in need.


In Kingston, "Trimming Compassion" is more than just a haircut; it's an expression of our shared humanity and commitment to caring for one another. Together, let us continue to extend compassion and kindness to those who need it most, ensuring that everyone in our community has the opportunity to look and feel their best.
