Movember [Starts Today - Please Donate]
 
Hey guys just to let you know I'll be partaking in Movember tomorrow, I don't know if any more of you will or if any of you have heard of this, so there is a brief description below. If you are interested in sponsoring me (it is for a good cause but I expect many of you won't) then visit my profile http://uk.movember.com/mospace/. :hugesmile:



Quote:

On Movember 1st, guys register at Movember.com with a clean-shaven face and then 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 and through their actions and words 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.
Also for those that were whining about my hair being too long (Glenn), happy now?

..I preferred it longer...:pipe:...

..but it's all in a good cause..

Stop being so bloody handsome Benjamin. Stick a bag over your head. :D

How much do people generally sponsor you for?

Benjamin 31-10-2012 07:00 AM

How much anyone wants to sponsor is up to them. Anything is fine, I understand not everyone will want to donate, that is also fine.

And, ha, I'm not that handsome. :tongue:

Niall 31-10-2012 11:01 AM

A moustache. It shows support to men's health awareness such as testicular cancer. It runs ever year throughout November across the world. :hugesmile:
