Out of one family’s tragedy, comes hope for others. Homebound by a degenerative neuromuscular disease at age 27, Melissa Marantz Nealy found solace in at-home beauty treatments that “made her feel human again.” Following Melissa’s passing, the Marantz family founded Beauty Bus to help people living with serious illness and their caregivers reconnect to their sense of self and to ease their isolation.

Now in its 17th year, Beauty Bus has delivered free professional services to over 36,000 patients and caregivers in 35+ hospitals and care facilities across Los Angeles, Orange, and Ventura counties.
