A tight-knit Lakeshore family using brotherhood to create awareness, raise support and show up for the communities around them.
Bearded Villains Lakeshore describes itself as a nonprofit family of bearded brothers committed to community assistance, charitable awareness, education and kindness — without discrimination based on race, religion, creed or sexuality.
BVLS belongs to an international brotherhood, but its work is local: community events, charitable fundraising, helping people in need and building a family that shows up for one another.


Lakeshore hosted the Bearded Villains World Meet in Canada, bringing the worldwide brotherhood together around an event that also supported Compass Food Bank.
The chapter’s public record includes support for breast-cancer fundraising, burn-camp programming, food-bank activity and other local charitable/community efforts.
