What is Movember®?

Movember® is a charity organization raising awareness and money to improve men’s health, especially:

  • Prostate Cancer
  • Testicular Cancer
  • Mental Health & Suicide Prevention
  • Physical Inactivity

The fund-raising event of Movember encourages men to grow a moustache during the month. Money is raised through pledges and donations. The extra facial hair can spark conversations about the cause and the importance of men’s health awareness.

What is No Shave November?

No-Shave November is an organization that educates about cancer prevention and aids those fighting the battle. 

The fund-raising event of No-Shave November encourages people to abstain from shaving or otherwise removing their hair during the month. People are encouraged to donate the money they typically spend on grooming and supplies to charities who educate, save lives, and aid those fighting the battle against cancer.

This event is open to all people, just put down your razors. The charities partnered are focused on cancer, and not specifically "men's" cancers.
