Haircuts by Donation at Maribel's Chair – April 12th

Share

Help Jesse Orozco Attend STEM Camp


On Saturday, April 12, from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM, professional haircuts will be offered by donation at Alicia's Desert Spa (The Mall, next to Calico's) 587 Palm Canyon Suite 112, Borrego Springs, CA, 92004.


Walk-ins only.


Licensed Barber & Cosmetologist Maribel Tellez will be offering Professional Haircuts on a pay-what-you-can basis to support her son Jesse Orozco, a standout student who’s earned a spot at the prestigious National Youth Leadership Forum: Explore STEM program at UC San Diego.


This is a community effort focused on care, opportunity, and supporting local youth. Jesse has been working hard—cutting hair for unhoused individuals, selling avocados and candy—to raise money for this life-changing STEM experience.


Donations from this event will help cover his tuition and travel.

Stop by for a fresh cut and be part of Jesse’s journey.


Location: Alicia's Desert Spa- 587 Palm Canyon Suite 112, Borrego Springs, CA, 92004.


Date:
Saturday, April 12th


Time:
11:00 AM – 5:00 PM

St. Barnabas Episcopal Church expands its ongoing collaboration with Rostros y Corazón For the first time, Fr. David Madsen and Jan Naragon of St. Barnabas (Borrego Springs) are leading a regular Eucharist service at Rostros y Corazón in Salton City. The gathering will take place the first and third Wednesday, creating a new opportunity for worship, fellowship, and community connection. The service builds on an existing relationship between the two organizations and reflects the many connections already shared between Borrego Springs and Salton City. Many West Shores residents work in Borrego Springs, attend school here, shop here, receive services here, or have family and friends in the Borrego Valley. The two communities are neighbors in many ways. The new service reflects St. Barnabas's commitment to extending ministry beyond its church walls while continuing to support relationships throughout the desert region. By gathering regularly at Rostros y Corazón, organizers hope to create a welcoming space for prayer, conversation, encouragement, and connection. Rostros y Corazón , led by Graciela Mendivil Ramos, is a nonprofit community center serving Salton City and the surrounding West Shores area. The organization is known for supporting families and connecting residents with needed resources. For upcoming service dates or questions, contact Graciela Mendivil Ramos at gracielamramos@gmail.com .
