Beard vs Scissors: Update

Give people a cup of water while deciding the winner in
Beard vs Scissors - the ultimate fund raising contest

Have you ever said, "I'm dying of thirst?" I bet you have and I'd bet you didn't really mean it.

If you're like me, you never spend much time thinking about water after all it is everywhere we go. Water's not a big deal. Right?

For a billion people on the planet, water is a massive deal. A life or death deal. A reason to walk for miles sort of deal. Millions of women and children have to walk hours each day to get water from muddy ponds and rivers. And much of that water is infested with parasites and leeches. In fact, 80% of all diseases in the world are caused by unsafe drinking water and lack of sanitation.

That is why I am offering my beard as an incentive to help raise the needed funds to help a village of people to have access to real drinking water. Beard vs Scissors pits my beard against the threat of a shave. Your donations will decide the winner.

Now I said before that the biggest donation would decide the winner but I have decided to throw it open to everyone. The biggest total donations for the beard or against it will decide the winner. The biggest anti-beard donation will (if "off with the beard" wins) win the donation giver the right to cut off my beard (prior to my shaving).

Every US Dollar (the currency of choice) counts as a vote so US$10 is ten votes. To cast votes go to mycharitywater.org/K2AGuy and deposit some cash.

To make your vote count you should say "off with the beard" or "save the beard" in the comments.

For those that donated without voting you will need to identify yourself on one of these pages (on Facebook) and state your votes intention:

Don't forget to spread the word about your vote of choice and get your friends and family to back you with a few dollars more.

Alternatively if you do not wish to use Facebook you may use my contact form to let me know.

Just lately it seems the Dollar has been slipping against the Pound so your money will buy slightly more if you come from the UK.
