Vote Metro Atlanta speech therapist competing for 'Most Benevolent Beard'

Kevin Simmons, a pediatric speech pathologist based in Atlanta, is gaining national recognition as one of five finalists in the "Most Benevolent Beard in America" competition hosted by Wahl. The grooming brand praised Simmons for his efforts to blend grooming with community goodwill, particularly through his sensory-friendly haircuts designed for children and young adults. Should he win, Simmons stands to receive $5,000 for himself and $20,000 for ConnectAbility, his selected charity. Voting for the competition remains open until September 12. Simmons' work exemplifies the significance of patience and care in creating a positive experience for children during haircuts.

His national recognition not only highlights his personal achievements but also shines a light on the importance of community service. Wahl's competition aims to celebrate individuals who use their platform for benevolence and goodwill. This initiative encourages public engagement and support for local heroes like Simmons.
