Movember

My absolute favourite month of the year, when men and boys around the world do their best to grow a mo. Each year Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces in Australia and around the world, with the sole aim of raising vital funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and depression in men.

Men sporting Movember moustaches, known as Mo Bros, 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.

Supported by the women in their lives, Mo Sistas, Movember Mo Bros raise funds by seeking out sponsorship for their Mo growing efforts. The rules are simple; register online at Movember.com and start the month of Movember clean shaven, before growing a Mo.  

For the mo sisters that can't grow a mo but want in on the action, check out the link to this website http://www.imadeyouabeard.com/  to have a lovely lady make you a mo/beard, any type of facial hair is lovely.
