EASTON, Pa. – You can vote for your favorite mustache on Facebook, and it might be on a face that you already know.
Welcome to No Shave November. Easton PA Firefighters local 713 take that seriously. They are having a mustache growing competition and the stakes are high.
The winner gets a pretty big trophy.
We are in the semi finals and it’s down to four mustaches at the moment.
You can vote for your favorite on Facebook and then make a donation. All the money raised goes to the Prostate Cancer Foundation.
So far, they’ve raised almost $1,000 and there is one week left in the competition.
The top 2 mustaches from the semis will go head-to-head in the championship round next week.
The firefighters have been having fun with No Shave November since 2022. The following year they started the public vote on Facebook and started raising money for cancer research.
When you think of the dangers firefighters face, you might only think about the fire part, but firefighters often have higher rates of cancer due to their exposure to smoke and chemicals while on duty.
So, this is a way for these firefighters to help combat that and have some fun along the way.
13 Easton firefighters officially competed this year, and they all started off on equal footing. They had to be clean shaven as of Sept. 1.
