About Mustaches for Kids Twin Cities
Founded in 2021, Mustaches for Kids Twin Cities (M4KTC) is the local chapter of Mustaches for Kids America, a volunteer-run nonprofit organization that combines facial hair and fundraising to support children's charities. Each year, M4KTC selects a local youth-focused charity partner and recruits "Growers" who, over a 30-day period, cultivate mustaches to raise funds and awareness. The campaign culminates in the celebratory "Stache Bash," where participants don creative costumes and honor their collective efforts. With the motto, "It's for the kids," M4KTC has raised nearly $400,000 since its inception, proving that a little facial hair can make a big difference. Learn more at m4ktc.com.
