What:

The “Beard of The Month” series exists for several reasons: 1) to have some fun exploring the world’s greatest bearded people, 2) to bring about community in a slightly unorthodox fashion, and 3), do so for a good cause.

How:

After we’ve made it through the end of the year, featuring one glorious beard per month, all bearded winners will compete against each other for the crown of “Beard of The Year.

Why:

During this end of year contest, each vote will be made via a donation to Live58, a global initiative to end extreme poverty. At the end of the day, the goal is to accomplish two purposes: give the best beard  it’s due moment in the sun, and come together to help the least of these.
