- Providing monthly full-salon services for Mary’s House, an 18-month transitional living program designed to meet the needs of at-risk and former female foster youth who have recently transitioned out of San Diego's Foster Care System. The goal of Mary's House is to provide these at-risk women safe shelter, life skills training, support and the advocacy they need to successfully transition into a self-sufficient and independent life. Salon 56 offers these girls complimentary image makeovers during their 18-month stay. 

- Collecting/donating gently used clothing for battered women’s shelters.

Salon 56 continues to seek out charities that focus on children, drug and alcohol recovery, low-income, battered women’s shelters, homeless family shelters, and the support of treatment for children’s cancers and will continue to look for philanthropic causes that they can support to ensure the world we live in is a beautiful one.
