DETROIT FAMILIES, WE’RE BACK! 🎉🙌🏾

Join the Ro Cares Foundation for our 2nd Annual Cuts, Care & Community Festival — a FREE afternoon filled with family fun, community, connection, and everything we can pack into one amazing day to help our kids get ready for the school year! ❤️📚

🎨 Arts & Crafts
🏰 Bounce Houses
🎯 Kids Activities
🍖 Food by BBQ Central
🍽️ FREE Meals for Kids

✂️ FREE HAIRCUTS

Fresh cuts for a fresh school year! 😎✨

We want our kids walking into school feeling confident, fresh, and ready to take on the year.

FREE haircuts will be available throughout the festival on a first-come, first-served basis.


🎒 FREE BACKPACKS

New school year = new adventures! 📚✨

We’ll be giving away FREE backpacks to help our kids head into the new school year ready to go.

🎒 Backpacks are available while supplies last.


🎨 ARTS & CRAFTS WITH PLAY MATES COMMUNITY

Time to get creative! 🖍️🎨✨

Play Mates Community will be joining us with a FREE, family-friendly arts & crafts experience where kids can color, create, get crafty, and have some fun!

Play Mates Community is all about creating accessible opportunities for play, creativity, connection, and community for families, and we’re so excited to have them joining us this year! ❤️


🏰 BOUNCE HOUSES + KIDS ACTIVITIES

LET THE KIDS PLAY! 🤸🏾‍♀️🎉🏰

Come ready to jump, laugh, play, and burn off some energy!

We’ll have bounce houses and family-friendly kids activities happening throughout the afternoon.

Translation for the parents: they might actually be tired when you get home. 😂🙌🏾

A quick note for our grown-ups: Bounce houses and inflatable activities are participate-at-your-own-risk activities. Parents and guardians are responsible for supervising their children and deciding whether participation is appropriate for them. Please help us keep the fun going by following all posted rules and instructions from event staff and inflatable operators. ❤️

Now… LET ’EM JUMP! 🏰🎉


🍖 COME HUNGRY — BBQ CENTRAL IS PULLING UP!

Because you already know we can’t have a community festival without some GOOD FOOD! 😋🔥

BBQ Central will be serving food throughout the festival.

🍽️ KIDS EAT FREE!

Parents, adults, and anyone else who comes hungry can also purchase from BBQ Central’s full menu.

Good food + family + community = say less. 😂❤️


❤️ THIS IS BIGGER THAN BACK-TO-SCHOOL

Yes, we’re giving away backpacks. 🎒

Yes, we’re cutting hair. ✂️

Yes, we’re feeding kids. 🍽️

And YES, we’re going to have some FUN! 🎉

But Cuts, Care & Community is about so much more.

The Ro Cares Foundation believes in empowering communities through service, education, opportunity, and access to resources that create lasting impact.

This festival is one way we put that mission into action — by bringing families together, supporting our neighbors, removing barriers where we can, and making sure our kids know that their community is rooting for them. ❤️

Sometimes care looks like a backpack. 🎒

Sometimes it looks like a fresh haircut. ✂️

Sometimes it’s a hot meal. 🍽️

Sometimes it’s giving a kid a place to play, laugh, create, and just be a kid. 🎨🏰

And sometimes it’s simply knowing…

YOUR COMMUNITY SHOWED UP FOR YOU. ❤️

That’s what Cuts, Care & Community is all about.
