Welcome to Movember
My MoSpace (that not a typo, it's a MoSpace.)
During Movember (the month formerly known as November) I've decided to use my facial hair-growing powers for good instead of evil. If you know me, you know that facial manscaping is my hobby. Could be a goatee one month, could be a jawbone-length muttonchop the next, whatever.
This month, I'll be rocking a serious moustache to spread the word about men's health issues, specifically the fight against prostate cancer.
To donate to my Mo you can either:
1. Click this link and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account.
or 2. Write a check payable to the "Prostate Cancer Foundation", referencing my Registration Number 1931426 and mail it to:
Prostate Cancer Foundation
Attn: Movember

Santa Monica, CA, 90401
All donations are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.
The money raised by Movember is donated directly to the Prostate Cancer Foundation, which will use the funds for high-impact research to find better treatments and a cure for prostate cancer. The PCF is a fully recognized charity.
Did you know:
* Prostate cancer is the most common non-skin cancer in the US with one in six American men developing the disease and more than 28,000 men dying of the disease every year.
* African American men and those with a family history of prostate cancer are twice as likely to develop the disease and should have regular annual testing starting at 45. All other men should commence testing at 50.
* Prostate cancer is 90% curable if detected and treated early.
In previous years, Movember has had a serious impact in prostate cancer cure research. You can check out the details at Fundraising Outcomes. Last year alone, the US Movember teams raised over $740,000 for the Prostate Cancer Foundation.
Thanks for your support. You can keep an eye on my blog here, or on my MoSpace for weekly updated pics so you know it's really going on.
