Larry King, Donny And Marie Osmond, And Leeza Gibbons Join Trend Setters College Of Cosmetology To R

Over 10,000 Future Professionals joined Winn Claybaugh and co-hosts Robert Cromeans

and Stephanie Kocielski for nationwide conference calls to launch the Paul Mitchell Schools 2010 FUNraising Campaign. Special guests Leeza Gibbons, Larry King, Donny and Marie Osmond, John Paul DeJoria, and Angus Mitchell introduced this years supported organizations, which include the Leeza Gibbons Memory Foundation, the Larry King Cardiac Foundation, Childrens Miracle Network, Food 4 Africa, and the Andrew Gomez Dream Foundation.

Each year, Paul Mitchell Future Professionals spend the months of February through April raising money and awareness for charitable causes close to their hearts. The schools efforts over the last six years raised nearly $3.4 million via cut-a-thons, charitable fashion shows, and a host of other hands-on, grassroots FUNraisers. This year, the networks goal is $1.2 million.

As in past years, the top 20 FUNraising schools will win an artist or educator in their school for a day. This year, the top 10 Future Professionals who raise the most money in pledges and donations will be flown to Southern California to attend the Magic of Memories Dinner.

For some, this years campaign really hits close to home. My husband Randy and I are so excited about partnering with Donny and Marie Osmond for the FUNraising campaign, said Sharida Burkholder, owner/director of Paul Mitchell The School Indianapolis. Our first baby girl was born with a rare birth defect and flown to a Childrens Miracle Network Hospital. Randy and I give yearly to this wonderful organization that gave us the opportunity to spend at least three days with Danielle before she passed away. We cant wait to support this cause that is dear to our hearts.

Lifes tough, and a lot of people go through really difficult times and challenges, Marie Osmond said on the call. When you are in service to somebody else, when you get out of your own sorrow and help somebody else, there is nothing that makes you feel better.

About the Supported Organizations:

THE LARRY KING CARDIAC FOUNDATION provides funding for lifesaving treatment for individuals who, due to limited means or no insurance, would otherwise be unable to receive the treatment and care they so desperately need.

THE LEEZA GIBBONS MEMORY FOUNDATION educates, empowers, and energizes caregivers impacted by chronic illness by creating unique programming, providing universal access to resources, and fostering evidence-based behavioral research to elevate the national consciousness of caregiving. Leezas Place is the signature program of the Leeza Gibbons Memory Foundation.

CHILDRENS MIRACLE NETWORK creates miracles by funding medical care, research, and education that saves and improves the lives of 17 million children each year. Countless individuals, organizations, and media partners unite with the 170 Childrens Miracle Network hospitals to help sick and injured kids in local communities.

FOOD 4 AFRICA strives to supply at least one vitamin- and mineral-enriched meal each day to the children of South Africa, where the HIV/AIDS epidemic has left countless numbers of orphaned children and more than a million preschool children do not receive sufficient food.

THE ANDREW GOMEZ DREAM FOUNDATION helps disadvantaged or hard-hit cosmetologists and cosmetology-related enterprises. Funds have provided educational opportunities, hurricane relief, and support in the fights against breast cancer, domestic violence, and other destroyers of self-esteem.
