River Forest FOP Lodge 46 No-Shave November

💕 A Message from the organizer, River Forest:

Per department policy, our officers are required to be clean shaven as part of their uniform. For the month of November, officers are allowed to grow their beards to raise money to benefit cancer research. In order to participate, they are encouraged to make a monetary donation towards the cause. In 2023, the FOP raised over $1000 dollars that were donated to cancer research and we hope to raise over $2000 this year. Please join us in our efforts to continue to give back to those who need it and show our support through this event.

It's time to get hairy for a great cause.

Welcome to our "No-Shave November" fundraiser in support of the American Cancer Fund! This is your chance to make a difference by simply putting down your razor and letting your hair grow wild for an entire month. Join thousands of participants across the nation in this unique journey to evoke conversation and raise awareness about cancer.

The American Cancer Fund has been a beacon of hope and support for nearly 60 years. Our mission is to educate, support, and empower those diagnosed with cancer. We provide independent information and research to enable patients and their families to make smarter choices for treatment, focusing on cure, functionality, and dignity. By participating in No—Shave November, you’ll help us work towards our ultimate goal: to save more lives. Educate. Navigate. Research. Empowerment.

Did you know that 92 cents of every dollar donated allows us to support those fighting cancer? Your generous donation, whether to honor the living or remember someone who passed or as a general contribution, will support patient research, cancer education, prevention, and disease navigation. Make your tax-deductible donation today, and together, we can make a real impact in the fight against cancer.

Wondering how you can get involved? What are the No-Shave November Rules? It’s simple! Commit to not shaving or grooming for the entirety of November to spark conversations about the importance of cancer awareness. Share your progress, inspire others to participate, and, most importantly, raise funds for the American Cancer Fund, one of the official participants in the only legally registered No-Shave November fundraiser.
