Buy Nev Schulman’s chest hair, enter to win trip to Catfish set

Catfish co-host Nev Schulman is putting the “hair” in chairity (sorry) as he is offering up a snip of his famous chest hair as part of a fundraising campaign for Leave Out Violence (LOVE). There are also other great items available from Nev and Max, and every five dollars you spend will enter you into a raffle for two tickets to meet the dynamic duo in person and spend a day on the Catfish set!

“Have you ever gazed longingly at Nev Schulman’s impressive chest hair?” the press release asks rhetorically. “Well now you have the opportunity to own a piece of Nev and do your civic duty by giving to a great non-profit initiative at the same time.” It later reveals that “Nev feels so passionately about this cause that he has offered to snip off some of his chest hair and offer it as an incentive to donate, along with a live-stream of him doing so. As additional encouragement for donating, there are prizes including t-shirts, personalized videos and social media shout-outs from Nev and Max.”

The grand prize includes:

• 2 x Set access credentials
• 2 x Transportation to the filming location
• 2 x nights standard accommodation, shared room
• Ground Transportation

Curious to know more about LOVE? Here’s the 411:

LOVE is an organization started in Montreal in 1993 with the mission of enabling youth who have been affected by violence to create positive change in their lives and become leaders among their peers and in their communities. It does this by providing safe settings, media arts training, social and emotional learning, and leadership development opportunities. Youth emerge from LOVE committed to carrying forward messages of non-violence, and ready to engage more fully in the world around them.
