Aaron's Movember

This month, Aaron is participating in Movember.

During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces, in the US and around the world. With their Mo's, these men raise vital awareness and funds for men's health issues, specifically prostate and testicular cancer initiatives. Once registered at www.movember.com, men start Movember 1st clean shaven. 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.

He and his team are hoping to raise a yet-unspecified amount of money for men's health research and initiatives. For the entire month, Aaron will be growing a mustache that will become a walking billboard--a talking point to share why this cause is important to him.

Truth be told, I am not a fan of the mustache, like, at all. But I think this cause is worth it, so I'm supporting Aaron and his team, the Mustachioed Marketers, with a donation, and I'm encouraging you to, as well. The funds each team raises will go to the Prostate Cancer Foundation and Livestrong. You can read more about Movember's strategic goals here.
