Hi All! My hair isn't long enough to donate for wigs (like I did for St. Baldrick's 2020), so I'm going to keep it growing until it is. 


Instead, I am shaving my ridiculous mustache for childhood cancer funding! The world will be a better place when it is gone--because it looks funny, and its absence means money for kids who need it! 


Give what you can or spread the word--donations can keep coming in, even after the 17th. 


Thanks! 
Rudolph
