826Chicago’s Moustache-A-Thon

Greetings. You have stumbled upon this Internet page because you:

Are a supporter of free writing programs for students in Chicago.
Have never met a moustache you didn’t like.
Are trying to search for Muscle Ache relief but your finger muscles are in such uncontrollable pain, you accidentally typed MoustAches.

Regardless, we say welcome. And now that you are hair and comfortable (except for you, muscles!), let’s get to the particulars:

Scan below for a grower, on whose behalf you will pledge your support by donating money. These growers are collectively trying to raise $15,000. These growers are also individually competing for weekly prizes as well as the coveted ’STACHE SASH. Feel free to donate based on the grower’s name, hair texture, follicular volume, shape, whatever. You are free to choose your criteria, for this is A-hair-ica.

Click the grower’s respective button and donate away! All the scratch raised goes to continue our free writing programs at 826CHI. As we are a nonprofit, your donation is tax-deductible.
If you do not want to electronically donate but want to send a check, please put the grower’s name in the memo line and send it to The Moustache Man c/o 826CHI · 1331 N. Milwaukee Ave. · Chicago, IL 60642.
If you do not want to go through the banks and want to donate in gold bars, please engrave the grower’s name in the bars and we’ll get our best horses and finest wagon out to pick it up personally.

These folks look great over the interweb, sure, but they look even better at the bar. Join us for our weekly festivities at Sheffield's, 3258 N Sheffield Ave at 7pm on February 11th, 18th and 25th!

THE OPENING HAIR-EMONIES!

January 21st, 2010

With over 50 participants, the MOUSTACHE-A-THON 2010, has officially begun. The Opening Hair-emonies were inspirational, beautiful and full of world hairmony. After the ‘stacheletes paraded the grounds, the moustache-a-thon flame finally entered the hallowed grounds of 826CHI and was handed off to last year’s Prosthetic Winner: Steve H. Steve did the honors of lighting the cauldron- [venetian dinnerlite candle] and the games commenced. The Moustache-a-thon flag was raised, oaths were taken, pigeons released. The ‘stacheletes then addressed their fellow competitors and the judges, explaining their inspirations and motivations for the coming month. See their faces below. It may very well be the last time you see their upper lips, ever.
