SARATOGA SPRINGS — Saving Face Barbershop in Saratoga Springs decided to buzz it’s way to support local students attending school this fall. 

Jeremiah Cregan and his business Saving Face Barbershop has been feeling the toll COVID-19 has taken on locally owned businesses, but decided to continue their yearly tradition of giving back to the schools. 

“We usually do a fundraiser every year that’s called Barber-Q. It’s our annual fundraiser and client appreciation day. Every year we do free haircuts, free food and drinks, live music and we encourage donations and we give those donations to a local charity. But we had to cancel due to everything with COVID-19,” Cregan said. 

Saving Face is running a back to school promotion for local kids attending school this fall. They will be conducting an online raffle to win a backpack with a cromebook laptop, pens and pencils, notebooks and more. Parents can purchase raffle tickets online at www.savingfacebarbershop.com.

“We will give donations to the Saratoga Bridges,” Cregan said. “We can still do something good for the community.”

They will draw the winner for the raffle on Sept. 5 at 12 p.m. and tickets can be purchased until that time.Saving Face has been open for a year and a half and are located at 68 West Ave., Suite 5. They can be contacted at 518-450-1217.
