What is No-Shave November?

No-Shave November is a month-long journey during which participants forgo shaving and grooming in order to evoke conversation and raise cancer awareness.  Learn more about how you can get involved and start getting hairy!

Mission:

No-Shave November is a web-based, non-profit organization devoted to growing cancer awareness and raising funds to support cancer prevention, research, and education.

The Concept:

The goal of No-Shave November is to grow awareness by embracing our hair, which many cancer patients lose, and letting it grow wild and free.  Donate the money you typically spend on shaving and grooming to educate about cancer prevention, save lives, and aid those fighting the battle.

Get Involved:

Participate by growing a beard, cultivating a mustache, letting those legs go natural, and skipping that waxing appointment.  Put down your razor and set up your own personal No-Shave November fundraising page.  If you’re not ready to get hairy, sit back and support someone who is.

The Rules:

The rules of No-Shave November are simple:  put down your razor for 30 days and donate your monthly hair-maintenance expenses to the cause.  Strict dress-code at work?  Don’t worry about it!  We encourage participation of any kind; grooming and trimming are perfectly acceptable.
