The Movember Campaign
CLICK HERE TO VISIT MOVEMBER'S CAMPAIGN WEBSITE
The Mo (slang for moustache) and Movember, the eleventh month of the year (formerly known as November), come together each year to create the world's largest movember for men's health - bring much needed awareness and funding to men's health and specifically prostate cancer.
The Movember Foundation challenges men to start Movember 1st (November 1st) clean shaven, then grow and groom their moustache for 30 days to raise awareness and funds to find a cure for prostate cancer.

HOW IT WORKS:
1. REGISTER at www.movember.com in October and we will email you everything you need to get started
2. CREATE a new look by growing your moustache starting Movember 1st clean shaven
3. MOTIVATE your friends and family to donate and support your growing efforts
4. CELEBRATE your journey at the moustache themed end of Movember Gala Parté
While growing a Mo is left to the guys, Mo Sistas (ladies who support their guys or just love Mo's!) form an important part of Movember by recruiting Mo Bros, helping to raise funds and attending the highly anticipated moustache themed Gala Partés.
But it' s not all fun and games, so why the extreme behavior?
Which ever way we look at it, men are far less healthy than women. The average life expectancy for men is five years less than for women.Men lack awareness about the very real health issues they face. There is an attitude that they have to be tough - "a real man" - and are reluctant to see a doctor about an illness or go for regular medical checks.
Movember aims to change these attitudes and make men's health fun by putting the Mo back on the face of fashion and in the process raise some serious funds for prostate cancer.
