WHAT IS M4K OMAHA?

Mustaches for Kids Omaha (M4K) is an annual fundraising campaign where participants grow mustaches throughout November to raise money for children's charities in the Omaha area. We combine absurdity with philanthropy — and somehow, it works beautifully.

HOW IT STARTED

Founded in 2009, M4K Omaha started with a simple idea: what if growing a ridiculous mustache could change a kid's life? Over 17 years later, we've raised more than $9M+ for local children's organizations. Turns out absurdity is a powerful force for good.

WHERE THE MONEY GOES

100% of funds raised go directly to children's charities right here in Omaha. Each year, organizations apply for funding, and our board selects recipients based on impact and need. Every dollar stays local.

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE

Anyone who can grow facial hair — or support those who do. Growers sign up, grow their stache for the month of November, and raise money through pledges. Supporters can donate directly to their favorite growers. Everyone wins. Especially the kids.
