Mustache March is a cultural movement and fundraiser for a variety of causes. Men grow mustaches for the month of March and collect charitable donations for the MACC Fund.

Mustaches have always been politically-charged. They've been banned by kings, forbidden by employers and used as a form of protest. The popularity of mustaches has ebbed and waned throughout the ages, and in America today we find ourselves at a low point of mustache-acceptance. What better way to start a cultural movement than to embrace an unpopular social practice in attempt to raise money for charity? The Follicle Freedom Foundation was born of this idea.
The goal is threefold. Revive a once-glorious grooming practice, humiliate ourselves in the process, and raise some cash for a worthy cause.
These are some of the events:
Mustache March judging and chili cook-off event.
Hanson Dodge Creative is organizing and hosting the fundraising event and campaign.
Groom is providing awards for the winners of the mustache contest.

Rules
1. All registered participants must be clean-shaven on March 1st, unless they are competing in the pre-existing condition class.
2. Facial hair of any variety is allowed until March 15th, after which point only a mustache is allowed. A mustache is defined as an island of hair that is at least 1cm (root to root) from the nearest body of facial hair. A mustache is an island. Get it? No isthmuses or peninsulas allowed.
3. Registered participants who shave off their mustache prior to judging, or those who refuse to obey to the " " island" " rule after March 15th are disqualified. Disqualification includes a $20 payment of personal monies to our selected charity, the MACC Fund.
4. Participants will be subjected to a minimum of 2 photographs (before and after) during the course of Mustache March for documentation/humiliation purposes. Additional photography will be solicited. It is highly recommended that you comply to this solicitation for humiliation purposes.
5. Participants will be given a pledge sheet when they register. This sheet and all donations must be turned in prior to judging on March 31st.
