Movember begins

The Movember Foundation is the leading global organization committed to changing the face of men’s health.
 
The Movember community has raised $559 million to date and funded over 800 programs in 21 countries. This work is saving and improving the lives of men affected by prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health problems.
 
The Movember Foundation challenges men to grow moustaches during Movember (formerly known as November), to spark conversation and raise vital funds for its men’s health programs. To date, 4 million moustaches have been grown worldwide, but we won't stop growing as long as serious men’s health issues exist.

 

To see Movember’s impact, please visit the program report cards, annual report and financial performance pages.
