The growing of the ‘stache officially began today for the Grow-A-’Stache fundraiser I’ve been working on.  Here’s the blank slate upon which my awesome man hairs will grow:

I’ve also convinced several of my Fraternity brothers to join in for this good cause.  Here’s a chart that will track the group’s progress as a whole (will also be updated daily):

We appreciate any donations to support this cause.  To donate, please click here.

Thanks!

Mustache-growing fundraiser … I’m gonna make it happen.

Here’s the idea:  for every $20 we raise as a group, we let our mustaches grow for a day.  This means that if we manage to raise $600, we let our mustaches grow for about a month.  If we raise $6k, well, we let ‘em grow for a year (haha, maybe that’s too much)!  Of course, we’d probably have to set some limit.  LOL, can you imagine if someone decided to donate $20k?  MUSTACHES FOR LIFE.

Rules

1.  Everyone starts off with a clean shave … no beard, no mustache.  Just you, baby.

2.  Once the first donation(s) come in, we’d start growing the ‘stache.  You MUST shave all facial hair except for the mustache.

3.  Raise funds for a  month (minimum).

4.  Grow the mustaches for a month (minimum).

5.  Take a picture of your mustache every day.  Pictures will be posted online somewhere to track progress (maybe even on this blog).  Beautiful.

6.  Set a goal for amount of funds to be raised … $1000?

Marco suggested proceeds should be donated to Make-A-Wish Foundation … I think that’s a great idea.  I’ll try and contact them to see what’s the best way of going about this.

Anyways, I’m still in the pre-pre-pre-planning stages of this, but I’d love to get involved (and maybe even get the Fraternity involved) and raise funds for a great cause.  If you wanna join and help raise some funds while growing a nice ‘stache, shoot me an e-mail or FB message.  Also, if you have suggestions or ideas on how to go about this, feel free to let me know!
