I am going let someone else shave my beard off to promote international understanding and contribute towards world peace.

A stretch?

Not when you understand where the money is going:

UWC Atlantic College - www.atlanticcollege.org/ - was founded in 1962 to engage young people from all nations in finding peaceful means to bring together a world divided by political, racial and socio-economic barriers by learning from one another.

The college exists to bring together promising, talented and deserving young people from across the globe and from all walks of life, to provide them with a unique educational opportunity. The deliberate diversity of its student body represents a key feature of the UWC Atlantic College experience which is designed to promote peace, international understanding and to challenge young people to embrace difference, responsibility and initiative.

It may be a minor contribution to a very large cause but every shave begins with a single hair.
