New College Phenomenon for Cancer Awareness (ADPR 2200)

The popular sensation for the past several years for young adults and teenagers especially has been "No Shave November." This activity is when girls and guys alike stop shaving any hair or get any haircuts for the entire month of November. Much to parents dismay - it has become especially popular for college students and high school students.

However, everyone has the opportunity to take a part in this "event," and now there is a great reason to get involved. A website called No-Shave November has established a group that promotes taking part in no shave November for the cause of cancer awareness. The idea, is that one stops shaving in order to get attention from the people around them, and inform them that it is for cancer awareness - in order to spread the idea.

In addition, the group has links set up on their website to donate money that goes to cancer research. This is a fantastic way to do something fun, get competitive with friends and be part of a great cause. Though it is too late to start for this year's November awareness month - plan ahead for next year and learn how to best get involved!
