In the Last six seasons, Thousands of fans have participated in the Hockey related Beard-A-Thon. This charity rasies over $3 million for hockey related charities. However, this year the goal is to raise an additional $1 million through the participation of hockey fans across North America. In order to participate in the Beard-A-Thon, fans can register at www.beardathon.com. This is where fans can choose their favorite NHL team and invite family and friends to pledge their playoff beards. By receiving pledges, participants have to promise that they will not shave until their team wins the Stanley Cup or is eliminates from the playoffs. I thought this article was very interesting because they are raising money for a good cause while doing it in a fun, and creative way.
