Talking Beards, the premier podcast for all things beard-related, recently interviewed Chris Battenburg, one of the organizers of the Best in the West charity beard and mustache contest. In the interview, Battenburg shared his passion for beards and how he got involved with organizing the event. He also discussed how the event has grown over the years and how it has become a platform to raise awareness about mental health issues.

Battenburg revealed that this year's festival will be bigger and better than ever before, with more categories added to the competition, including non-beard categories such as Dreads and Braids. The event will feature live music from headliners Dramarama, as well as food vendors and refreshments from local businesses. Participants can enter multiple categories for a chance to win prizes from sponsors Honest Amish and The Altruistic American.

The Best in the West charity beard and mustache contest is not just about showcasing impressive facial hair; it's also about giving back to the community. Battenburg explained that proceeds from the event will go towards The Altruistic American and establishing a mental health care facility that provides accessible care for those dealing with mental health issues. By participating in this year's festival, attendees can show their support for a great cause while having fun and celebrating all things beard-related.

THE ALTRUISTIC AMERICAN

https://thealtruisticamerican.com/

The Altruistic American will raise awareness of mental health issues through educational events, community initiatives, programs targeted at vulnerable people experiencing the common symptoms of loneliness and isolation, interactive forums, and public awareness campaigns that will highlight the social stigma, prejudice, marginalization, and discrimination experienced by those dealing with ill mental health. We recognize there is a huge gap in services for those falling through the cracks of existing agencies and local organizations. As mental health advocates we will stand up for those who do not have a voice reminding everyone that there is light, healing and hope throughout this journey.

With public support we will establish a mental health care facility to offer a community-based care option that is a safe and supportive environment to remove treatment barriers for people who need access to mental health services. We are committed to providing the necessary resources along with a broad spectrum of services delivered through compassionate, comprehensive individualized care to save lives, save families, and save futures.
