The fall means a lot of things to a lot of people: sweater weather, colorful leaves, the start of school.But for the staff of DonorsChoose.org, fall only means one thing: Mustaches. That’s right…Mustaches! This year, as in past years, brave men around the country will sprout sweet ‘Staches in the name of helping students.Mustaches for Kids – a yearly competition amongst mustachioed men to support children’s charities – is a test of strength, endurance, and tolerance (of humiliation that is). For four weeks, men will grow out their ‘Staches and ask their friends and family to “sponsor” them by donating to classrooms in need. They’ll get together weekly to see how their ‘Staches stack up. Then, the month-long competition culminates in everyone’s favorite event: the ‘Stache Bash!We know you’re wondering how you can get involved…Guys – Grow a ‘Stache to raise some cash.
