The Mission
No-Shave November is a web-based, non-profit organisation devoted to growing cancer awareness and raising funds to support cancer prevention, research, and education.

What is No-Shave November?
No-Shave November is a month-long journey during which participants forgo shaving and grooming in order to evoke conversation and raise cancer awareness. Learn more about how you can get involved and start getting hairy!

The Concept
The goal of No-Shave November is to grow awareness by embracing our hair, which many cancer patients lose, and letting it grow wild and free. Donate the money you typically spend on shaving and grooming to educate about cancer prevention, save lives, and aid those fighting the battle.

Get Involved
Participate by growing a beard, cultivating a moustache, letting those legs go natural, and skipping that waxing appointment. Put down your razor and set up your own personal No-Shave November fundraising page. If you're not ready to get hairy, sit back and support someone who is.

The Rules
The rules of No-Shave November are simple: put down your razor for 30 days and donate your monthly hair-maintenance expenses to the cause. Strict dress code at work? Don't worry about it! We encourage participation of any kind; grooming and trimming are perfectly acceptable.

Participate
Put down your razor and join the fun! Create your own personal fundraising page by registering to participate in No-Shave November.

The Story
No-Shave November has been a tradition for many years, but it wasn’t until the fall of 2009 that members of the Chicagoland Hill family decided to use it as a means to raise money for charity. It was a project that held special meaning to the eight Hill children after their father, Matthew Hill, passed away from colon cancer in November 2007.

Participants in No-Shave November have always been willing to ditch their razors and, more recently, donate to cancer fighting foundations. But what started as an easy way for a few followers on Facebook to donate their hard-earned money has turned into a nationwide celebration. Every November for the past six years, these No-Shavers have donated the cost of grooming {from a few dollars on razors to $100 on a salon visit} and helped our organization raise over $2 million dollars to date. As a family run, web-based organization, No-Shave November has grown exponentially since 2009.

The team's goal is to keep raising money for cancer prevention, education, and research and to let that hair grow in the process!

They want every participant to embrace their hair for the many cancer patients that lose theirs due to vigorous treatments.

The team believes that together, anything is possible, and we’ll get closer to eradicating cancer one whisker at a time!
