Did you know that in many salons, groomers are required to provide their own equipment? This can be a cost of thousands of dollars to a new groomer, creating a barrier to enter the field. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints provides students with the tools they need to succeed. After completing Course 101: Intro to Bathing + Brushing, students receive one of these tool kits. Upon graduation, the kit is theirs to take into their first job in the grooming industry. Thank you to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for giving our students the tools they need to begin their new careers and The Church of Jesus Christ in Greater Kansas City for making it happen!
