Joi Salon Holds Fundraiser for North End Against Drugs

On Thursday August 11, Joi Salon on Atlantic Avenue held a fabulous fundraiser for North End Against Drugs (NEAD).

Salon owner Erica Harris and manager Jessica Winterle put together an unbelievable evening to help out NEAD.

Along with their incredible staff they raised over $2,000 to help with programs for youth and families. The salon was packed with people having a great time, indulging themselves in some of the various services being offered that night, like beachy waves or a spray tan.

There was a fantastic raffle, delicious food and a wonderful night of socializing. Several members of the NEAD Board were in attendance along with many of Joi’s regular clients and several friends of NEAD from the neighborhood.

“We are extremely grateful to Erica, Jessica and their entire staff. They were amazing from the planning stages, to advertising and getting prizes and even cooking the food. We cannot thank them enough for their generosity and friendship” stated NEAD President John Romano.

“We encourage all of our friends and neighbors to stop in the Salon at 2 Atlantic Avenue and check out what they have to offer.  The place is totally amazing and the staff is fabulous.”
