Firefighters for Healing Selected as 2022 Charity Partner for Mustaches for Kids Twin Cities

It was recently announced that Mustaches for Kids Twin Cities (M4KTC) selected Firefighters For Healing to be their 2022 charity partner. All proceeds of the April campaign will benefit Firefighters For Healing’s Camp RED program for burn survivors between the ages of 5 – 15 years old. In 2021, the first year of M4KTC, the local community raised just under $100,000. In 2022, the goal is to exceed that in honor of the burn survivors who could not attend camp for the last 2 summers due to Covid. We want to make it extra special!

The Director of Camp RED, Jeff Larson was elated when he heard the news that Mustaches for Kids Twin Cities selected Camp RED as the 2022 charity partner. He said, “The children who attend our camp have survived burn trauma but that does not define them. The money raised through the Mustaches for Kids events will help us provide these campers with memories to last a lifetime while building their confidence to embrace their scars.”

Founding Member of M4KTC John Resman said, “We are excited to partner with Firefighters For Healing this year. They are an inspiring organization that provides an important summer camp experience for some amazing young survivors of burn trauma.  Our goals are simple - have fun while raising money for a charity supporting youth in the Twin Cities area.”

M4KTC is looking for men to GROW Mustaches in April

The Mustaches for Kids Twin Cities (M4KTC) campaign is simple: Anyone who can grow a mustache should visit M4KTC.com by April 4 to register as a GROWER or learn more. Anyone who wishes to show support or make a donation is invited to attend the clean shave event on April 4 at Excelsior Brewing Company. If you’re not local, you can still join the fun by donating online until the Stache Bash on Thursday, May 5, 2022.
