Calling all Mustache Growers!

The Portland chapter of Mustaches for Kids (M4K PDX) is gearing up to launch its third year of raucous facial hair growth for charity – and we want YOU!

We're holding our Meet & Greet on Thursday, February 4 at 7:00pm at Red Flag (344 NE 28th Ave). If you think you have what it takes to grow a mustache for charity – and compete for the honorable title of Portland’s Sweetest ‘Stache – please stop by! And bring your friends.


The Vitals: M4K is a volunteer-run organization that does good and has fun by growing mustaches for children's charities. Really. This February, volunteer Growers will cultivate sweet mustaches and solicit pledges from friends, family, coworkers, and community members. Kind of like getting pledges to run a marathon – without the exertion, cramping, or dehydration.

We'll meet at local bars on a weekly basis to check in, compare progress, and inspire donations for DonorsChoose.org, a nonprofit organization that funds projects at under served public schools right here in Oregon!

To top it all off, the Growing Season will culminate with the 'Stache Bash – a mustache beauty pageant & talent show that will culminate with the crowning of Portland's Sweetest 'Stache.

What better excuse to grow a furry new friend on your upper lip? Please help spread the word and forward this on to anyone and everyone you know. Do it for the kids!

'Stachely Yours,

Chrissy & Staci, M4K PDX Chapter Organizers
