No that's not a typo, it's Movember, when you can grow a solo stache for prostate cancer awareness & research! [http://us.movember.com/] One among several unconventional charitable movements I've discovered over the summer (sorry I've been absent in posting!) Another favorite event was a pub crawl for Cystic Fibrosis [http://www.cff.org/Chapters/washington/index.cfm?ID=18859&blnShowBack=True&idContentType=1548&Event=18859]. What better than drinking beer for a good cause! Or of course there is Mens Room Original Red available at a fine establishment or supermarket near you, proceeds to the VA Fisher House [http://www.elysianbrewing.com/beer/mensroom.html].
I'm just getting into a new passion for charity auction fundraising, as a spotter for Allegria Auctions [http://allegriaauctions.com/]. I've had the enjoyment of attending Auction of Washington Wines (benefitting Childrens Hospital), EarthCorps, and in February will do Mukilteo's Japanese Gulch Group [http://japanesegulch.org/].
Besides these unconventional ideas, the Season of Giving is upon us with plenty of traditional holiday charities such as food and toy drives. Happy Holidays!
