76design helps to make wishes come true

Campaign design by our very own Ben Watts.
A strange yet mysterious veil falls gently over the 76design office in Ottawa every year in the month of November. It is a veil but more accurately it is a mustache – many mustaches. Yes, Mustaches!
We grow mustaches not only for the style and sophistication but for a truly greater purpose – the enhanced visual appeal is just the icing on the cake. We are growing for Mustaches for Kids (M4K) to raise money for Make a Wish Eastern Ontario. Our mustaches make wishes come true – read more on how the helped some local kids in need of a wish.
M4K has grown and matured within the walls of 76design. Legend has it that M4K was in fact brought to Ottawa and nurtured to greatness by the shameless dedication of 76designers. Over the years we’ve seen many a stache. Including our fearless leader, Joseph Thornley, who is growing with us yet again – and matching any donation to him. But all fun aside, we’re proud to have contributed to M4K and Make a Wish.
M4K is now in its 5th year in Ottawa and we’ve raised a combined amount of $50,000. Last year we raised $20,000 and this year, with over 100 growers, we are aiming at $25,000.
Help us make our mustaches worth more than they look. You don’t need a mustache to help.

If you don’t know which grower to support you should choose me. I am the only 76designer with a mustache for our new site’s profile pictures!
