OT: Movember fundraising. Help a 1'er out!

MikeVictor · 10-31-2010, 10:51 PM

Hello everyone,

Like many people, this year I'll be allowing myself a little bit of luxury by growing a moustache to support the Movember charity fundraiser.

Each year Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces in Australia and around the world, with the sole aim of raising vital funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and depression in men.

Men sporting Movember moustaches, known as Mo Bros, become walking, talking billboards for the 30 days of November and through their actions and words raise awareness by prompting private and public conversation around the often ignored issue of men’s health.

Supported by the women in their lives, Mo Sistas, Movember Mo Bros raise funds by seeking out sponsorship for their Mo growing efforts. The rules are simple; register online at Movember.com and start the month of Movember clean shaven, before growing a Mo.

Money raised in Australia is shared equally between programs targeting prostate cancer and male depression. Funds are committed to our men’s health partners, the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia and beyondblue – the national depression initiative and the Movember Foundation. Together, the three channels work to ensure that Movember funds are supporting a broad range of innovative, world class programs in the fields of research, education, support, and awareness.

My Mospace page can be found here -> http://au.movember.com/mospace/532902/ if you'd like to visit and make a donation, or even leave some encouraging words for others at the same time.

Thank you everyone for your support.

Great work Matt - will keep an eye on your progress. Don did it last year and I liked it so much I wouldn't let him shave it off!
