Hi! Raising Money For a Good Cause...




Greetings! Happy Holidays. Chances are, if you've seen me lately, you've noticed that I have a mustache. Why? I'm working with a charity organization called "Mustaches For Kids." We're raising money for at-need public schools. We grow mustaches as a gimmick to solicit donations to this charity. The Mustaches For Kids Charity in the past has raised over $300,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
So, if you'd like to make a tax-deductible contribution to this charity, here are ways you can contribute:

1. Write a check or acquire a money order. These should be made payable to "DonorsChoose.org" with "Mustaches For Kids" written in the Memo portion.
I can either pick the check up from you or you may mail it to me at my address:

Mustache Jimmy
321 Flatbush Ave., #8
Brooklyn, NY 11217

(As a note, checks will not clear until January 2008, so if that is a concern, a money order is optimal.)

2. You can also donate online at:

Just make sure you follow these directions, which are also on the donorschoose.org website:

To earmark your donation in honor of a specific Grower’s mustache, do the following when you checkout:

Click the ‘This donation is a gift in someone else's name’ button under the ‘Acknowledgment’ heading.

Fill out the ‘Honoree Information’ screen with the Grower’s information.
Mustache Jimmy
321 Flatbush Ave., #8
Brooklyn, NY 11217

Fill out the ‘Contact Information’ screen with YOUR info.
