Capitol School Partners with ronald mcdonald house omaha
Click here to read about Jax’s journey with the Ronald McDonald House in Omaha (RMH).
Capitol students are accompanied by a licensed instructor each month to the House to offer haircuts and styles to the residences. RMH offers lodging, meals and support to families while they are in Omaha for medical treatments and surgeries. RMH Omaha’s recent expansion doubled in size in order to assist more families. Find out more about the Mission of Ronald McDonald House Omaha.
We are glad to continue aiding the Ronald McDonald House families to experience a bit of normalcy during their stay.
Capitol School Partners with omaha’s open door mission
Learn more about Capitol’s involvement with Back to School haircuts with Omaha’s Open Door Mission.
Taylor Clinch, a program administrative assistant at Open Door, said that when people are dealing with issues such as poverty, addiction and homelessness, smaller things — such as haircuts — can fall by this wayside.
“It’s awesome that Capitol provides that,” he said. “They’re a very giving company. They’re very kind and loving, and they provide for our kids.”

UNMC Community Service Partnership
It all started when the Munroe-Meyer Institute's respite care and parent resource programs teamed with a local business to provide a "day of pampering" for 30 parents of children with intellectual and developmental disabilities and complex health needs. The moms who turned out for the May event were offered haircuts, highlighting, coloring, styles and facials by Capitol’s students. Each mom also received a gift bag of at-home care beauty products. At Capitol we love helping out where and when we can. We really appreciate Jessica Gutierrez and Tinisha Poitier of the Munroe-Meyer Institute for reaching out to us to help for such a worthy cause for mothers to enjoy a morning of self-care!
