GROW, GIVE or MOVE this Movember The Movember Foundation grows with MOVE as new way to participate in 2015

Toronto, ON (September 22nd, 2015) – Moustache season is around the corner with the launch of the Movember Foundation’s annual 2015 Movember campaign. Today the Foundation launches MOVE, a new way for Mo Bros and Mo Sistas to participate and make a difference. Last year over one million men and women supported the moustache globally, raising an incredible $100 million CAD for men’s health. The Foundation is the leading global men’s health charity investing in projects addressing prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and physical inactivity. Sign up and donate today at Movember.com. GET INVOLVED Men and women sign up at Movember.com and commit to grow a moustache, MOVE, or both. Movember will always be about the moustache, challenging Mo Bros to grow and Mo Sistas to support their hairy efforts, but now thanks to MOVE, everyone can be an active champion of men’s health. MOVE is 30-day fitness challenge to raise funds and awareness for men’s health. How Canadians MOVE is up to them, from a ping-pong game to a run after work, no MOVE is too big or small to make a difference this Movember. Once signed up Mo Bros and Mo Sistas use their personal Mo Space fundraising page to get friends, family, and colleagues to donate to their hairy and active efforts. “We’re excited to have Movember.com open and ready for all to sign up. This year we’re introducing MOVE as a new way for everyone to participate, men can grow and get their Mo’s moving, and women can see their support in action,” said Claire Lamont, Country Director, Movember Canada, “2014 was an incredible year and thanks to the continued support from Canadians, and around the world, we’re proud to share that we funded our 1000th men’s health project globally, but there’s still a lot of work to be done.” MAKE A DIFFERENCE Throughout the month Mo Bros and Mo Sistas become walking, talking billboards, sparking conversations and raising critical funds that support breakthrough men’s health project, with the goal of changing the face of men’s health.
