During November
each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands
of men’s faces, in the US and around the world. With their Mo's, these men
raise vital awareness and funds for men's health issues, specifically prostate
and testicular cancer initiatives.
Once registered at www.movember.com, men start Movember 1st clean shaven. For
the rest of the month, these selfless and generous men, known as Mo Bros,
groom, trim and wax their way into the annals of fine moustachery. Supported by
the women in their lives, Mo Sistas, Movember Mo Bros raise funds by seeking
out sponsorship for their Mo-growing efforts.
Mo Bros effectively become walking, talking billboards for the 30 days of
November. Through their actions and words they raise awareness by prompting
private and public conversation around the often ignored issue of men’s health.
At the end of the month, Mo Bros and Mo Sistas celebrate their gallantry and
valor by either throwing their own Movember party or attending one of the
infamous Gala Partés held around the world by Movember, for Movember.
