You can help with the oil spill cleanup! Donate hair/pet fur/nylons

Email I received:

Anyone and Everyone: salons, groomers, individuals can sign up to donate hair and fur clippins and nylons for our Oil Spill Booms. Our Excess Access program sign up is free, fast and helps us to coordinate the masses of donations.

Thousands of pounds of hair and nylons are coming in by UPS and FED EX from every State in the US and from Canada, Brazil, France, UK... Booms are being made all along the Gulf Coast near beaches and marshes. What a community feeling! We all get it. We shampoo because hair collects oil! More Info
Donations can be dropped off at the entrance to the hotel at 921 Canal St. and then be transported to the warehouse parking garage behind the hotel.

Ritz-Carlton employees will work in teams to create booms by stuffing nylons with donated hair and fur. To find out more and see how the booms are made:


See their YouTube video and another link to see how YOU can help!

I can empty my vaccum cleaner and make my own boom with all the dog hair in it.

What a great way for people to get involved!

:D

And think of all those nylons that get thrown out. You can make booms out of nylons with runs.
Think of all the hair that salons throw away!

I told mine at Cost Cutters and they were going to see what they could do company wide.
