Day 16...half way growth!

Slowly getting past the itchy stage....and humbling to accept the "salt & pepper" version of this Fu Manchu.

My goal is to raise $1000 by November 30th...currently sitting at $200. Looks like I need to kick it up a notch.

To support me in my fundraising efforts for Movember and help me raise awareness of Prostate Cancer, I invite you to make a donation at this link;

Bringing back the MOUSTACHE!

The idea for Movember was sparked in 2003 over a few beers in Melbourne, Australia. The guys behind it joked about 80s fashion and decided it was time to bring the moustache back. In order to justify their Mos (Australian slang for moustache), they used their new looks to raise money for prostate cancer research… never dreaming that facial hair would ultimately lead to a global movement that would get men talking about a taboo subject – their health.

A Mo Bro starts Movember – the month formerly known as November – clean shaven, and grows a moustache all month long, garnering support from friends and family in the form of donations. What’s more, a Mo Bro is a walking billboard for the cause as his new look opens the door for him to talk about prostate cancer – making the moustache a symbol, much like the pink ribbon is for breast cancer.

The money raised in Canada goes directly to Prostate Cancer Canada. Prostate Cancer Canada will use the money raised by Movember for the development of programs related to awareness, public education, advocacy, support of those affected, and research into the prevention, detection, treatment and cure of prostate cancer.

In 2008 the Movember campaign in Canada raised $2.4 million making it the largest charity event for men. Significantly, awareness of men’s health issues has improved with Movember helping to spread important health messages directly to thousands of Mo Bros & Sistas.

We challenge you to join us in changing the face of men's health

FALLU is growing a FU MANCHU....but WHY?

I'm glad you asked! I trust that will be the standard question as I grow out my salt & pepper Fu Manchu over the course of the next 30 days. There are several motivations for this crazy adventure....

1. Why not? Growing a stash is a privilege for any grown man - right?
2. Deep down...I really do miss my "glory" goatee days...when I had no grey!
3. So far...Deanne honestly thinks I look sexy...so again, why not?
4. Most importantly...I'm FUNdraising for a great cause - Men's Health issues.

November....is now officially known as Movember - an annual, month-long celebration of the moustache, highlighting men’s health issues - specifically prostate cancer.
