Brave philanthropists in Boston recently dove into the world of manly mustaches to help kids. These men sacrificed their honor and their faces to walk a lonely, month-long journey of growing mustaches. Leading up to the Super Bowl, they honored famous Boston mustache Wes Welker:

Their enthusiasm for all things Boston and mustache landed them on the local news. Check out the coverage they received on WHDH Boston!

The guys of Boston M4K raised nearly $18,000 for classroom projects, and one man in particular went above and beyond. Jordan Melcon told his friends, family, and colleagues that if he reached his $7,000 goal, he would shave his head.

As you see, he met his goal, and single-handedly raised over $8,000 for students in need!

Jordan, from all of us at DonorsChoose.org, and on behalf of the thousands of students you’ve help: Thank you! And we hope you have lots of hats.
