St. Louis Beard & Moustache Competition
When:
August 3 @ 12:00 am
Greetings! We are the St Louis Beard & Mustache Club. Our mission as St Louis’ only 501c(3) organization dedicated to promoting facial hair growth, appreciation, acceptance, pride, culture and competition in the St. Louis area. Volunteering and fundraising within our community strengthens the acceptance for which our members proudly strive. Our fellow Beardos & Whiskerinas travel from around the country to St Louis to compete for best in their category. Winners take home unique trophies and prize packs from our sponsors. Entry fees and proceeds from our 50/50, raffle items, and live auctions will benefit: DOGS FOR OUR BRAVE!
Dogs for Our Brave, Inc provides professionally trained service dogs at no cost to veterans who have suffered debilitating injury or illness while in service to our country. Their goal is to train rescue dogs at every opportunity, thus saving two lives at once. In order to fully realize their mission without adding financial burden, they also provide a continuum of free support that covers all food, veterinary care, and pharmaceuticals for the life of the dog. Our 2022 competition raised $5000 covering the cost of the Veteran
Pairing Process for one of their veteran applicants!
100% of the work on the event is done by volunteers, 75% of all proceeds from the event will be donated to Dogs for our Brave, with 25% used by the St. Louis Beard and Mustache Club for future volunteer projects and club related events.
