Donating your locks to charity isn’t the only way to help others via human hair. Last week, a number of Morpheus men participated in #StacheWeek, bravely sporting manicured mustaches to earn money for Smile Train, a charity that fixes cleft lips and palates for children in developing countries. As a reward for the extra time spent grooming, a donation was made on behalf of each participating team member.

The mustaches are off, and the totals are in. Through generous donations from Morpheus team members and some teachers at P.S. 169, a total of $1,352 was raised for Smile Train!

So, was it worth rocking the ’stache for a week? Says Dave, “We were a little skeptical of growing mustaches at first, but we were raising money for an amazing cause. The team embraced their new staches and we had a good time with it….creepy but good.”
