Fantastic Sams Los Angeles Region Fights Juvenile Diabetes

Discount Coupons for JDRF Families and Friends!

Fantastic Sams has just selected the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Los Angeles (JDRF) as their charity of choice.

This fall, they’ll put their scissors and highlighting brushes to work to help raise awareness about type 1 diabetes. They’ll do some fun things, like sneaker sales for diabetes, to connect with the community and underscore that Fantastic Sams is not only about looking good, they also care for their neighbors.

"Type 1 diabetes strikes children and adults and stays with them and all who love them every day for the rest of their lives," said Marilyn Tokatly, chairperson and board president of Fantastic Sams Los Angeles Region.

"While we most often focus on great-looking hair and fun color, Fantastic Sams also has a serious side," said Tokatly. "We care about all aspects of our customers and our community, and we’re proud to join with JDRF to stand up for such an important cause."

Fantastic Sams will also be offering "fantastic" discounts at salons throughout Los Angeles for JDRF friends and families. Watch for the JDRF coupons for haircuts, highlights and more.

According to Linda Ames, Ames & Associates, "Fantastic Sams’ stylists and owners understand the impact of diabetes – some in their own lives. They want to make a difference for children and families living with diabetes."

Watch for news on Fantastic Sams’ coupons in October as salons across Los Angeles "cut for a cure."
