Yes folks, we’re back for another year of mustache mayhem, follicular follies, and general do-gooder-ness using only our upper lips. (Look ma, no hands!)
However, we NEED YOUR HELP! The impact we make in our local communities is directly related to how many sweet, sexy mustaches and mustache supporters are roaming around Baltimore. Believe us, in our 4th year, we’ve learned this immutable fact. We raised an impressive $32,500 in 2010 – time to do even better!
Your mission is the following:
* Register to join the ranks of our brave 2011 Mustache Growers
* Join our mailing list on the right side of this page
* Tell all your friends
For Growing Season 2011, we are proud to again join with DonorsChoose.org as our charitable partner. DonorsChoose.org is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit that allows donors to individually choose and directly fund teacher-submitted educational projects, improving the public school experience for students in Baltimore City and around the country.
This year’s growing season will officially start on SHAVING DAY, Tuesday, November 1st with all existing facial hair shaved clean (possibly in public!). Check out our Events page and mark your calendars!
The Stache Bash competition for the coveted title of “Sweetest Stache 2010″ was fierce! Retro Mike Ditka, Magnum PI, the construction worker from the Village People, and multiple Ron Burgundys all battled it out. But in the end, it was Hulk Hogan (Dan “Lil’ Ed” Baldwin) who successfully navigated past the mustache poetry competition, the dance off, and Borat in a man-kini (yes, we’re serious) to emerge victorious! And he did a pretty damn good job fundraising too.
Come join Mustaches for Kids Baltimore at STACHE BASH 2010, one of Baltimore’s funniest nights!
Stache Bash, often described as “beauty pageant meets police lineup”, is a celebration of our brave volunteers who have spent an entire month living their regular lives while growing raging lip caterpillars, upper-lip sweaters, or if you prefer…”sweet mustaches”, while raising money to improve local classrooms!
Oh yes, these guys are in it for the kids. But we need need YOU to help us crown “Baltimore’s Sweetest Stache of 2010!” INVITE YOUR FRIENDS!
