Thanks to CSL Behring', Melissa Tanner and all the fine folks at CSL Behring for once again sponsoring a wonderful St. Baldrick's event and inviting the KACC Adult Cosmetology Program to participate. KACC Adult Cosmetology Program students and their cosmetology instructors, Tonya Born and Michelle McWilliams were thrilled to be a part of this annual fundraiser.

According to Ms. Tanner, Ms. Born, Ms. McWilliams and their students provided mini manicures, colored green streaks in hair as well as shaving the heads and beards of eight of their staff members.
