Now THATS an award!
Here’s an award that I’ve not heard talked about - and I think it deserves more press then most! It seems that Johnny Depp has been declared best mustache grower of all time! Yup, this post is all about the ‘tache!
The Everyman Male Cancer Campaign ran the survey in conjunction with the press for the upcoming fundraiser, TACHEBACK. Over the past 7 years, TACHEBACK has encouraged participants to neglect their upper lip for the month of September, gather sponsors, and help raise money for the Every Man Male Cancer Campaign to help fund their research into prostate and testicular cancer. They’ve raised £700,000 since it started in 2003. This year, they’re aiming to smash the £1,000,000 barrier!
They are based in the UK, so I’m not sure if others can join the fundraiser or not, but if you’re willing to neglect your upper lip for a month, or sponsor someone who is, I say go check it out. They will have challenges, teams and individual events, Tache Warriors, news and fundraiser tips to help you get started. There’s even a party one September 30th in London, where you can say goodbye to your fuzzy lip in style, while you meet and greet with other Warriors!
So, especially if you are in the UK, go and check out the Tacheback challenge, and ignore your upper lip for just 30 days, or support those who will. After all, not only are you helping your fellow man, you could be declared the best Tache, and be in the company of our very, very fine Johnny Depp!
Who wouldn’t want THAT, hm?
