Tuesday, October 4, 2011 at 9:52AM Start your razors Gentlemen!
It's officially Shave Day and we are really excited to kick off our 2011 "Oct-GROW-ber" Campaign.
WHERE?:
Meet us tonight at No Grease (Located at Time Warner Arena, 333 E. Trade Street, Suite D) For free food, beverages, and a clean shave.
WHAT'S ALL THE FUSS ABOUT?:
Starting on Shaving Day – Tuesday, October 4th – Growers, their friends, and Mustache Enthusiasts will gather at weekly checkpoints. There, we will celebrate the joys and challenges of growing Mustaches. And we'll freak out people at the bar who aren't used to seeing large groups of men with Mustaches.
WANNA BE PART OF THE FUN?:
All Growers are encouraged to create a “Giving Page” at http://www.firstgiving.com/patsplace/mustaches-for-kids-charlotte. You can make a totally sweet profile, add photos, and most importantly, encourage donors to learn more about our charity of choice, Pat's Place, and the amazing things they do for children in our community.
SEE YOU TONIGHT!

Shaving Day: gentleman, start your razors
We’re excited to see all of you for Shaving Day Tuesday October 4, 6:30 pm at No Grease Uptown. DO NOT miss it. PLEASE DO bring friends, co-workers, significant others… you name it.
To shave or not to shave?
Someone hasn’t read the mustache rules too closely, which clearly state:
On the designated Clean Shaven Day, participants (Growers) will shave their faces clean of any and all facial hair. This includes, but is not limited to, Mustaches, beards, goatees, muttonchops, chinstraps, soul patches, sideburns that extend below the top of the earlobe, and Van Dykes.
Register your ‘stache!
If you’ve not yet done so, please follow the very short, very easy instructions posted on the JOIN US tab or visit our donors site directly and start your PERSONALIZED DONORS PAGE. See you (and your soon-to-be 'stache) Tuesday, October 4 from 6:30-9:00p.m.
Join us for our after party at Strike City!
Feel light on your feet after a clean shave from No Grease and join us at Strike City from 9:00 p.m. - (as long as you can hang) at our after party. We're excited to announce M4K has partnered with Strike City to "Strike Out Abuse" and 20% of the food and drinks that you purchase at the King Pin bar will go directly to Pat's Place, our charity of choice.

Wednesday, August 31, 2011 at 2:22AM That's right! It's official! The growing season is finally upon us!
Do you have what it takes to grow 'The Sweetest 'Stache?'
Here's how it works:
Each year, during the four-week Growing Season, Growers sprout sweet, sweet Mustaches. Per Mustaches for Kids bylaws, they shave their faces, except for the Mustache, a minimum of one time per week and solicit donations from friends, family, co-workers and people in the community. Kind of like getting pledges to run a marathon. Without the exertion, cramping, or dehydration.
At the end of the Growing Season, each Mustaches for Kids chapter hosts a Mustache Competition, which is a cross between a beauty pageant, dog show, and police line up. During the Competition, Growers, often in Mustache-enhancing costumes, are put through a test of mind, body, and Mustache. They allow their facial hair to be evaluated by an independent panel of judges, and one Mustache is declared to be the "Sweetest."
Do you have what it takes!
In the words of our founders, "Grow With Us."
Last year the Charlotte M4K Chapter raised $62,000 for donorchoose.org. Amazing!
This year we are sharing the love around the community and encouraging participates to advocate for an amazing local non-profit organization, Pat's Place. Pat's Place is the only child advocacy center serving Mecklenburg County children.
Our Goal: $100,000
Take the challenge! You won't want to miss out on the fun! Take a look at last years 'Stache Bash provided by Red Leaf Films.
Happy Growing!
