Movember

The rules for Movember are straightforward, start November with no hair and let a mustache grow until the end of the month. Started by a group of thirty men in Australia in the year 2003, Movember has now become an organization that seeks to raise awareness and funds for prostate cancer. Since this type of cancer has not had much attention, the CEO and co-founder, Adam Garone, believes that, what started off as a social experiment, should represent something greater. Last year, $126,300,000 was raised by 855,203 mustache-growing participants. This year, over 1,000,000 participants are expected. All of the money goes to Movember, the Livestrong Foundation, and the Prostate Cancer Foundation.
