Have you seen Mike or Derek or Casey or Mike or Charles or Joe or Dan or Brian or Todd or Ben this week?
Fear the beard. Yes, you read that right. FEAR.THE.BEARD.
The men of Village are going rugged-growing beards- for the month of November
as a way to honor all of the cancers that everyday men are forced to battle.
So many cancer patients are left with no choice but to lose
their hair, and “No Shave November” (www.no-shavenovember.com
) is a way to grow awareness of the fight they have to face. Any money we save
from typical shaving expenses will be donated to the American Cancer Society.
But that’s not all. We, guys, want to kick this up a notch.
At the end of the month we will be asking all the ladies of the staff to vote
for their favorite beard. The word favorite, as you know, can take on many
different meanings-voting should be fun!
Voting would cost a dollar and all money raised would again be donated
to the American Cancer Society. Obviously
those who wish to donate more than a dollar are more than welcome to.
So there you have it, ladies. That explains the sloppiness
you have been seeing on the faces of the males in this building this week. As we all get weird looks during
parent-teacher conferences, we will be remembering and lifting up all those men
who have had to fight the terrible disease of cancer. Just remember, fear the
beard!
