OUR APPROACH<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

ABOUT M4K<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Mustaches for Kids America is a volunteer-run non-profit organization started in Los Angeles in 1999 to do good and have fun by growing Mustaches for children’s charities. The concept is pretty simple, you get pledges\/donations to grow a mustache for one month. All the money raised during this fundraiser is donated to local children’s charities selected by the individual chapters.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

OUR STORY<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

M4K Chapters have partnered with dozens of local children’s charities over the years and have raised over $12,000,000.  During the year 2020 with uncertainty and untold hardship – our chapters raised over $1,800,000 for children. Virtually. A feat only heroes could accomplish. Are you our next hero? We are looking to expand by opening new chapters all across the country.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of the growing season, we have Stache Bash, a mustache-themed costume party during which we crown the winner of the coveted “Sweetest Stache” and hand out other awards that are cherished by the recipients. So it’s all pretty simple: mustache, charity, and competition infused with meaningless pageantry. You can spare four weeks of your life for that.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the words of Mark Twain, “I’ve never met a man with a mustache that was not good, honest, decent, awesome, good-looking, humble, sexy, wise, and a fantastic dancer.” (from “The Book of Stuff Mark Twain Never Said”)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
