It’s finally here—the time of year when men can skip grooming and be trendy at the same time. Now celebrated worldwide, #NoShaveNovember was created to increase awareness of men’s health issues, especially cancer, and to raise money to support research.
While no governing body regulates this, two well-known nonprofits lead the way. Australia’s Movember emphasizes growing a mustache as a way to draw attention to men’s health issues like prostate and testicular cancer, along with mental health. And No-Shave November, a nonprofit based in Texas, promotes a similar idea.
Many Delaware men show their support by growing a beard or mustache. Whether it’s a logger beard, 1800s-style mutton chops, a walrus mustache, or prickly legs (for those who can’t grow one of the others), join the cause—and tell your significant other that you’re not unkempt, you’re a philanthropist.
