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.

Last but not least I have read global rules and believe this thread should be allowed, if you feel this should be closed I'll be happy to battle back about it :p

I grew a beard throughout most of october, shaved it off last night leaving just a mo.. I don't care if it's cheating.



EDIT: also don't care if any women disapprove of it

Redact, collect your shavings and give them to Condog. He can just glue them on on the 29th or something.

If you raise like $40 and do some online initiation thing, then you print it and bring it to grilld and you get a little card and you can get a free Grill'd burger a day through Movember.
