Project Butterfly is an initiative launched by the beauty industry OGs under the Beautiful Hearts Fund. Last year the team of beauty professionals spread love and won the hearts of the elderly angels. This year, they came back to spread more love and magic. Here are more details about the event.
Project Butterfly started as a community initiative of the beauty industry, for the beauty industry, and by the beauty industry. Soon, it went on to spread its colourful wings to spread smiles and win hearts all around. In 2022, when everyone was learning to live in a post-pandemic world, Project Butterfly brought smiles to the elderly. The OGs of the beauty industry came together to return the love and blessings they have received from the elderly residents of St. Anthony’s Home for Aged. This year, the team returned with more love and magic to make the angels at St. Anthony’s smile again.
