About BVLS

Built around family, respect and service.

Bearded Villains Lakeshore is a tight-knit chapter within the worldwide Bearded Villains brotherhood, using community, fraternity and kindness as a platform for positive local impact.

Our mission

See people with the heart first.

The chapter's mission centres on giving back, creating awareness for charities, helping the community and building a family atmosphere free from discrimination.

The foundation is simple: the beard, charity, community, family, respect and loyalty.

Bearded Villains

A worldwide brotherhood.

Bearded Villains began in Los Angeles in 2014 and developed into an international brotherhood whose chapters support local communities, charity work, family and one another.

BVLS carries those principles into its own Lakeshore community work while staying connected to chapters around the world.

“This Pride is our FAMILY”
