For those of you that may not have noticed, I've been growing out my beard this whole year. It has reached some pretty great milestones, and is definitely the longest it has ever been- but it needs your help!
Help keep my beard alive, and dye it purple to represent the freedom and love c-squad can bring throughout the world!
Purple, c-squad's color, isn't typically used to represent freedom like blue is, but is a color that often represents riches and royalty – a spiritual representation of what Christ can do in the reaches of the earth.
So how do we dye my beard purple? By raising the rest of the money I need to complete the race! Help me reach my different milestones, as pictured below, by June 22 (my 26th birthday) or the beard, as well as my dream for the world race, will die! As of May 3rd, when the fundraiser started, I was funded $12,000 of the $16,285 needed by July first.
Dye my beard purple today by donating to my trip!

Die My Beard Purple Fundraising Milestones
Final Funding (as of 6/25/2014): $15,280
UPDATE: Because of the overwhelming support I've recieved during the fundraising process, I've decided to leave the final portion open, and as soon as I'm fully funded, the "prepped beard" will go purple!
Tier 0 – Baby Face (clean shaven)
$12,000 – Goal Met
Goodbye hopes, goodbye dreams, goodbye Roxanne. (Goodbye facial hair)
Tier 1 – Creeper 'Stache.
$12,600 – Goal Met
Probably the worst kind of facial hair on the planet. But it's one step closer to the beard!
Tier 2 – Goatee
$13,300 – Goal Met
I'd rather be a goat than a creeper! Plus, it's way closer to the beard!
Tier 3 – Full Beard
$14,100 – Goal Met
Nothing says "manly" like a beard. And in a world where women outnumber men in Missions, being manly is important.
Tier 4 – Prep the Stage
$15,000 – Goal Met
A brown beard can't turn purple… Not without being lightened up first! A blonde beard to represent the light of God to the world! Plus, I look more like ol' boy Moses. That's awesome.
Final Tier – Epic Purple Beard!
$16,000
Nobody will doubt that I stand for something when I have a big purple beard! What a great way to capture their attention to share the message of Christ with them! Plus, I'll be fully funded! No more worrying about raising the funds to finish this dream well!
