LET IT GROW You may have heard of No-Shave November, an annual fundraiser where men let their beards grow in order to spread awareness and raise money for cancer research. Mt. Lebanon police have often participated. But this year, the officers will be upping their game with a fundraiser they’re calling Beards for Brian, to raise money for the family of Mt. Lebanon High School principal Brian McFeeley, who was diagnosed with Stage IV pancreatic cancer this past summer and the entire Mt. Lebanon community has pulled together to support.

Mt. Lebanon police officers are normally not permitted to grow beards, but for $60, they can rest the razor for the month of November. And to raise even more money, they can pay another $60 to let it go throughout December.

You can get in on the community spirit, too. Find donation information at mcfeeleystrong.org.
