Support this folically-challenged individual as he undertakes a month-long facial hair odyssey... for an incredibly-good cause. My first endeavor into this last year was vastly more successful (both folically and financially) than I ever anticipated, but it's time to up the ante. A team of local Mary Munford Monarchs dads have formed a Man-archs team with the goal of raising at least $2,000 each.
Overall, last year's M4K Richmond raised over $875,000 for local childrens' charities. This year we're aiming for a million, and we need your help!
