Sport Clips' Help A Hero fundraiser runs from October 5 - November 15 and participating stores will offer free haircuts for Veterans & Active Duty Service Members on Veterans Day, November 11.

Since 2013, Sport Clips has been the primary supporter of the VFW’s "Sport Clips Help A Hero Scholarship" program, which provides scholarships for service members and veterans for use at post-secondary schools and trade schools. To date, we have awarded more than 3,350 scholarships totaling almost $15.3 million.

Sport Clips stores around the country will collect donations in-store from October 5 through November 15 to help fund these life-changing scholarships. More than 80% of the funds raised each year come directly from our generous Clients, with the balance coming from our generous suppliers and product partners.

And on Veterans Day, November 11, participating Sport Clips locations will contribute an additional $2 for every haircut service and provide free haircuts for veterans.

Our scholarship recipients come from every part of the United States, represent every branch of service and are earning a variety of degrees including engineering, computer science, business, accounting, health care and many more. 

Applications are accepted by the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW). Application dates for the fall semester are January 1 through April 30 and dates for the spring semester are August 1 through November 15. To learn more about the VFW's "Sport Clips Help A Hero Scholarship" program, including details on eligibility, click here.
