No, that is not a typo! Movember, the fundraiser to raise awareness and funds for Prostate Cancer research which takes place for the entirety of November, is amongst us again! This year I have officially signed up to participate. And so here is the call for all you who read to help out with this cause. Below is the standard email…
Hi All,
During Movember (the month formerly known as November) I’m growing a Moustache. That’s right I’m bringing the Mo back because I’m passionate about tackling men’s health issues and being proactive in the fight against prostate cancer.
To donate to my Mo you can either:
1.
Click this link https://www.movember.com/ca/donate/donate-details.php?action=sponsorlink®o=1628901&country=ca and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account, or
2.
Write a cheque payable to the ‘Prostate Cancer Research Foundation of Canada’, referencing my Registration Number 1628901 and mailing it to:Prostate Cancer Research Foundation of Canada

Toronto Ontario M5A 1E3Donations are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.
The money raised by Movember is donated directly to the Prostate Cancer Research Foundation of Canada who will use the funds to create awareness and fund research across the country into prevention, detection and treatment, with a goal to ending the threat of prostate cancer.
Did you know:
* Every year around 24,700 Canadian men are diagnosed with prostate cancer and about 4,300 die of the disease, making it the number one cancer threat to Canadian men.
* 1 in 7 men will develop prostate cancer in their lifetime.
* All men over the age of 40 are potentially at risk and should talk to their doctor about the disease and early detection. Prostate cancer is 95% curable if detected and treated early.For those that have supported Movember in previous years you can be very proud of the impact it has had and can check out the details at:
