Ready, Set, Shave! Happy Movember 1st!

Every Movember, the month formerly known as November, moustaches (Mo’s) begin sprouting on men’s faces across the globe to raise awareness and funds for men’s health, specifically prostate and testicular cancer initiatives. Millions will be raised by MoBros and MoSistas all over the world for men’s health initiatives during this one month. In the US, LIVESTRONG Foundation is proud to be a beneficiary partner, along with the Prostate Cancer Foundation.

The rules of Movember are simple:

1) Go online and register. (Join Team MOLIVESTRONG and you could win prizes)
2) Men, start the month clean shaven. Women, make sure your man isn’t cheating and be supportive in his furry pursuit.
3) Men, grow only a moustache (no beards or goatees)
4) One in two men will get cancer in their lifetime. Talk to men about their risks for cancer. Send them to Movember.com for more information.

It’s that easy!

Join Our Team:
Each Friday during Movember the LIVESTRONG Foundation will award prizes to one Mo Bro and one Mo Sista who have shared a photo, selected by a random drawing. On the last Friday of the month the highest fundraising Mo Bro and Mo Sista will receive a grand prize. You have to be a member of our team though, so visit our site and join the MOLIVESTRONG Team today!
