Movember is back for Lucky year # 14. So its time to stand up, stretch ( for the second time), and dig deep into your pockets for this years stache…. Drumroll please………… “The Doubler” Thank you to Dr. Audra Mintz for the suggestion a few years ago, as I am always looking for the next best thing in mustachery. Loren Mintz will also be growing the a stache this year, as I am happy to have him on Team Bruce and Larry Grow the MO! Check out his story and fundraising on his site https://movember.com/m/15096246?mc=1
The goal this year is $20,000 . Your contribution will help someone fight their battle, raise awareness, and provide support systems to men with mental illness. Your contribution makes a difference.
Part of the reason the Movember campaign is successful is because people see the mustache and ask questions about why I am growing such a distinguished friend on my face. The mustache is a great conversation starter and gives me an opportunity to talk about the importance of men getting regular checkups, seeking help if they need someone to talk to, and doing things they need to do on a daily basis to stay healthy. I am growing the Stache in honor of Eli, Marcie, Dad, Jeff, Chad ,Papa Jerry, Harold, Bryan, J, Uncle Sam, Brian N , and everyone else who has been affected by cancer and mental illness.

Another aspect of the campaign is to raise awareness for Men's mental health issues including depression, anxiety, and suicide prevention. Men need to know that it is ok to ask for help and the money you donate will support organizations so men can get the help they need to be healthy physically and mentally.

I am going to continue a fundraising tactic I started by accepting physical challenges for donations. Appropriate examples would be push-ups, jumping jacks, making free throws, bur-pees, etc. The deal is that if I choose to take on your "reasonable" physical challenge, you must "double” your original donation if I am able to complete it. If I am unable to complete the challenge, I will pay to double your original donation. For example, if you donate $100 (Thank You) and you want to see if I can do 100 jumping jacks shirtless then the challenge is on! If I am able to do the 100 jumping jacks you would make an additional $100 donation to Movember. If I am unable to finish the challenge, I will make a $100 donation in your honor. There is no limit on the challenges I will accept and I look forward to seeing some more creativity this year. I will be providing pictures/video evidence of the challenges on the Movember website and social media.

I am proud to grow the Stache every year to support curing cancer, being proactive about catching cancer early, and giving men different resources to turn to for mental health issues.

Thanks again for the support and let's get ahead of cancer before cancer gets ahead of us.

Hey Aaron, James here from Mo HQ. Looks like you’re absolutely smashing it this Movember. You and your moustache are helping us kick prostate cancer in the arse. Great work. Mo on!

We are almost at the end of the line this month and so far we have raised $3792.00! There is still time left to make a donation that can really make a difference. Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far and to those jumping on the bandwagon today to make a donation.
