Memphis, Tenn. – (November 8, 2010) – Remington College-Memphis Campus is offering complimentary salon services – either a hair cut, manicure or pedicure – to people who bring in a can of food during the month of November.

The food collected will be given to the Mid-South Food Bank.

“There are so many families struggling to make ends meet in our community,” said Dr. Lori May, Remington College-Memphis Campus President. “We want to help as many families as we can during the holidays and are offering some of our salon services in return for any canned food donation.”
