They are running after-school programs and workshops for Black women to help them learn skills and find jobs. The <United Negro College Fund> and the <Thurgood Marshall College Fund> are organizations that work to establish black colleges and expand higher education opportunities for blacks. Finally, the <Loveland Foundation> is an organization that raises funds for the treatment of black women suffering from mental problems.

“We are pleased to receive Sensationnel^@‘s support,” said Betsy Burton-Strunk, Vice President of the <Thurgood Marshall College Fund>, which received Sensationnel^@‘s donation. “We are well aware that Sensationnel^@ have a great impact as a member of the Black community by expressing personal beauty through hair styles. We are grateful for their direct support,” he said.

Louis Choi, Vice President of Sensationnel^@, said that “We will strive to be the No. 1 brand in the hair industry as well as No. 1 in community support. We will build relationships with more non-profit organizations in an effort to create lasting change in the black community,” he said, sharing his plans to give back to the community.

Ampro

Delivered 6,300 gallons of hand sanitizer to Tennessee schools

Ampro, known for its hair gel called ‘Shine n Jam’, donated a total of 6,300 gallons of its own hand sanitizers last March to the Shelby County District schools in Tennessee, where its headquarters and factory are located. The donated products will be provided as a gallon of hand sanitizers in each classroom at the local school.

Jack Sammons, President of Ampro, said, “We are excited to bring the hand sanitizers we produced and donate it to Shelby County schools by four trucks. Ampro products are made right here in Memphis. It is an honor to work with Superintendent Joris Ray and all teachers to ensure that students can safely return to the classroom.”

When Corona broke out in early 2020, Ampro changed its hair styling gel manufacturing line to hand sanitizer to supply workers in the community and in essential occupations.

Shelby County Superintendent Joris M. “Ampro has been very supportive in #ReturnStronger, a movement to get students back to school safely. This support will empower students across our county,” Dr. Ray said, thanking them.
