Who We Are
Mixed Foundation was created as an extension of our cosmetology school to make education accessible for all. Through scholarships, tuition support, mentorship, and community programs, we help students overcome barriers and pursue their goals. Since 2014, our reach has grown to include outreach, financial education, and health initiatives—supporting not only education but the whole person. Guided by volunteers and powered by donors, we remain committed to uplifting and empowering people to build brighter futures.
