Buffalo Joe’s Back-to-School Drive: Haircuts, Supplies, & Support

Monday, August 4th | 5PM – 8 PM 2803 Central St, Melissa, TX 75454

We’re giving away free back-to-school haircuts, backpacks, and basic supplies to help kids in our community start the year strong — but we can’t do it alone. We need your help to make it happen.

Buffalo Joe’s barbers will be donating their time and skills to offer free cuts for kids, and we’re asking the community to step up by donating supplies.

• Free haircuts for pre-registered boys
• Backpacks loaded with real supplies
• Grooming essentials (combs, deodorant, etc.)
• A meaningful day built around pride, presence, and showing up ready

• Free Haircut + Supplies: For kids who need both. A parent/guardian must register, and the child must be present at the event.
• Haircut Only: For kids who already have school supplies and just want a fresh cut before the first day.
• Donation Ticket: If you’d like to support this event financially without registering a child.

We plan to provide cuts for up to 50 kids, but we’ll go further if we can.Haircut registration will close a few days before the event so we can send out haircut times and finalize the schedule.Supplies will be given out as long as they last — registered attendees will have first priority.

• Donate supplies — backpacks, pencils, folders, crayons, deodorant, combs, toothbrushes, etc.
• Drop off donations at Buffalo Joe’s during business hours:
• • Tuesday–Friday: 10 AM–6 PM
  • Saturday: 9 AM–7 PM
• Message us on Instagram (@buffalo__joe) to coordinate drop-off, sponsor, or get involved.

This is our shot to step fully into our role in this community.Let’s make sure no kid starts the school year feeling left out.
