If you start to see the men in your life sporting a bit more upper lip hair than usual, chances are they’re doing it for a good cause. The annual “Movember” fundraising campaign, now in its 12th year, raises funds and awareness for men’s health throughout the month of November. Movember’s most iconic hallmark is encouraging men (“Bro Mo’s”) to cultivate a moustache throughout the month.
“Men’s health is in crisis and we need to take action,” said Greg Oliva, Community Development Manager for the Movember organization. “Too many men are suffering in silence because they think that it’s not manly to talk about health. We want to help men take a more active approach to their health.”
