12 Years of Growing Mustaches and Raising Money for Make-a-Wish

Mustaches for Kids Ottawa 2008 was a great success

December 24th, 2008 by admin

Another great year

The amount we raised this year speaks for itself. Thanks to your efforts and enthusiasm we’ve raised $16,000 for the Make-a-Wish Foundation of Eastern Ontario. Mike at Make-a-Wish has told me that a wish is in the works and I’ll let you guys know as soon as I know the details and how your efforts are helping.

The Stache Bash Sash Goes too…

Hats off to Todd Headon for claiming the Stache Bash Sash. Truly a great costume, a world class stache and a helluva guy. Congrats. Another one thats gonna be hard to live up to. The bar has been set.

The Portraits

Thanks to Paul Gallipeau (www.lechampiondumonde.com) for taking the glamour shots. I didn’t think we could possibly look any better than we already do, but the photos make your stache larger than life:

Many Thanks

M4K Ottawa would be a naked upper lip without the help from our good friends:

  • our one-of-a-kind emcee Sylvie Hill
  • our photographers Paul Gallipeau and Bex Fernando
  • Zaphods for the Stache bash
  • the Clocktower for giving us a home for our 5 weeks

And of course my co-organizers Steve Palmer and Mike Hollingworth.

Next Year

Go forth and spread the word. Next year will be our biggest and best yet. Can you believe we will be 5 years old already.
