Welcome to Mustache March

This year, many Amherst Police Officers have decided to shave their heads in an effort to raise money to fund research for a cure for childhood cancer.

On March 27, 2011, Officers will be at Rafters Sports Bar and Restaurant, on University Drive, in Amherst, to shave their heads in support of the St. Baldrick's Foundation. The St. Baldrick's Foundation currently funds more in childhood cancer research grants than any organization except the U.S. government.

In addition to this, many Officers have also decided to bear mustaches throughout the month of March as a fun way to raise further awareness for the foundation.

For more information, contact the Amherst Police Department St. Baldrick's team captain, Officer Feliciano, or check out our team webpage.
