Beards BeCAUSE Raises Money for the Battered Women's Shelter of Charlotte, North Carolina

Here's another group of men using their facial hair growing powers for good. The group is Beards BeCAUSE, and over the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years season they proudly tossed their razors aside and let whiskers flourish. Not an easy thing to do, given all the social events and inquisitive relatives, but in the end they raised $10,000 for the Battered Women's Shelter of Charlotte, North Carolina.

We wanted to congratulate winner Nate Field (and all the participants), who turns out to be a friend of a friend, for his grizzliest adams. Here's a photo and his bio:

I'm a professional facial hair grower. I've done them all. Goatee, dirty 'stache, chops, full beard, fu manchu, three musketeer, Wolverine, even the good ol' Magnum PI/cop mustache. But never for a good cause. So as a Southern transplant to New England and with a sure-to-be chilly winter approaching, what better to do than to grow a chin warmer and raise money for a good cause while doing so. Oh and to have the burliest beard of every one else come January.

Nice beard (and hair) Nate! You look like a cross between Eric Clapton and Trey Anastasio.
