I did something similar last year. There is an Australian charity called Movember & basically you grow a mustache for the month of November & collect sponsors. Last year it was for prostate cancer! Twas pretty popular in Ireland last year alot of TV personalities got involved. I ended up at the official media launch totally by accident got a bunch of free shaving stuff & drank loads of free beer & vodka

Funnily enough though I'm growing my beard back at the moment because the weather is cold
