Donations
Thanks everyone, we're already up to $220 in donations! Great work, but I know we can do better! Keep in mind that every penny that we raise will be going to breastcancer.org, which is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing the most reliable, complete, and up-to-date information about breast cancer.
By donating we can help breastcancer.org reach people all over the world with medical information and community support. Breast cancer is not completely preventable at this time, however, with early detection, the survival rates can be dramatically increased. The more information woman know, the earlier it can be detected and overcome!
Remember, all donations are collected using PayPal (click the Chip In button to the right) so you can be assured that your donation will be a safe transaction. Any donation, no matter the size, significantly helps the cause.

NFL supports the fight against Breast Cancer
If you watched any football games over the weekend, you may have noticed something different about the players, coaches, and referees....they were all wearing pink! Throughout the month of October the NFL is running it's "A Crucial Catch" campaign to raise awareness of breast cancer. They have partnered with the American Cancer society and will be auctioning off all the pink apparel to help raise money.
The NFL has taken the challenge to help fight against Breast Cancer, have you? Help to spread the word and collect donations for Beards for Breast Cancer!

Let the Campaign begin
Let me be the first (and hopefully not the last) to welcome you to Breast Cancer Awareness month. Today begins our goal of raising $1000 by month's end in support of BreastCancer.org, so spread the word and donate!
Please support our cause and start growing that beard out. Remember, you must be clean shaven this morning and grow your beard for the entire month of October. When people ask why you're changing your look, explain to them the importance of Breast Cancer Awareness month and ask them to donate to the cause!

The beard growing is set to begin tomorrow. Please make sure you are clean shaven, and send us pictures of your progress, we will post them to our Flickr page.

Beards
Why grow a beard in support of Breast Cancer? Of course, to raise awareness! You can be assured that people will be asking about your newly grown facial hair. This is the perfect opportunity to inform them that October is Breast Cancer awareness month and get them to join the cause! The more people talk about Breast Cancer, the more people get involved.
We're asking everyone to grow a beard for the month of October and spread the word about this terrible disease. Whether you know someone personally who has suffered or not, you can help to get the word out. Please join us in this cause to raise awareness and collect donations to find a cure for Breast Cancer!
