The best part of this contest is the real-life impact it has, just ask last year's winner Rodney Smith Jr. from Huntsville, AL. Smith's talent to trim his beard also extends to lawns; through his charity Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Inc., kids from across the country have joined his mission to provide free lawn care services to the elderly, disabled and veterans. 'To date, more than 400 kids have completed the '50 Yard Challenge,' and I'm so proud to present each one of those kids with lawn equipment to help them continue their goodwill. Winning this contest has allowed me to reward even more kids for their hard work,' explained Smith.
