holiday spirit in the final three days...




As the photos suggest, 'Mustaches for Kids' is not simply a day at the salt mines. Last Tuesday, growers converged on Union Square for 'Mustaches on Ice.' We strapped on the ice skates and had a ball of a time. Check out the matching white figure skates of me and my buddy Gabe.

It was an amazing week for the fundraising efforts thanks to so many of you! Thanks to 57 donors, we have raised over $4,400 for the amazing elementary school 'Think College Now' in Oakland. Ten classrooms of kids now have a range of new books and educational supplies.

And we can help fund two more classrooms-- the last projects we are trying to fund in this effort-- in the last three days of this fundraiser.

If you have already donated, you should feel proud: I've heard personally how excited the teachers and kids are to have these new books and supplies. If you haven't yet donated, please do! It's a generous holiday gift to a little person's future.
The event ends on Wednesday at the world famous "Stache Bash." All 85 growers and their friends will convene for a party and gala mustache beauty contest. It's a fun, lively event that starts at 8PM at the Rickshaw Stop (155 Fell Street @ Van Ness). Check out the evite- come one come all!
