Who Should I Donate to For #Movember?
You may have become painfully aware in the past 30 days of an increase in dudes walking around looking like porn stars, police officers from the 70s, and men who shouldn't be allowed within 100 feet of a playground. Fear not ladies, these looks aren't here to stay, they're only apart of something called "Movember."
Every year men across the globe grow out their facial hair and take the public ridicule of looking like unfortunate members of society in order to raise money for charity. If you take a look at the Movember website, it tells you that they are a "moustache growing charity event held during November each year that raises funds and awareness for men's health." There are a few rules involved with growing a stache, including the fact that you cannot have a beard, and you must sport that 'stache proudly.
I've always had more male friends than female friends (and I was a bit of a tomboy as a kid), and love all of the awesome gentlemen in my life. The guys below are either social media colleagues/friends, friends from teaching abroad, old friends from Syracuse, or even my "fiance" (depending on who you ask). Regardless -- they're all pretty damn amazing.
The Deal and How You Can Help
