We're Half Way There!

Thanks to most of you; last year I was able to raise $200 [individually] with what is still considered to be one of the world’s worst "dusters" of all time [Call my bluff? Click the link below for photographic evidence]! This year I've set a new goal to double last years total and raise $400 for cancer research. With just a little under two weeks left; I already look like a creepy, French, adult film star from 1972 [I've never been more proud to look so ugly]. More importantly however, I'm just over half way in achieving my fundraising goals!
 
With just a couple clicks of a mouse you'll be able to sleep better knowing that your contributions were used to assist in raising millions of dollars towards prostate cancer research and could possibly be responsible for saving thousands of [Canadian] lives! Whether it's $1 or $100; every little bit helps! I urge you to get involved by clicking here and donating to my "MoTeam".
 
Together we can make prostate cancer a thing of the past, one ugly upper lip at a time!
 
Thank you all so much for everything

What's a MoBro?

It's Movember, the month formerly known as November, which I've dedicated to growing a MOustache with a hint of Mullet (trying something new this year) in an attempt to raise awareness (and funds) for men's health research. I have joined the MOvement, yet again this year, to protect my follow MoBro’s… one prostate at a time.



"Maybe I missed the memo; What's a MoBro?"


If you don’t know, you ain't my bro!


It means for the next 30 days I will be donating my upper lip to my sponsors! Aside from causing nightmares to any small child that comes in contact with it; my MO will spark conversations, turn heads in the gym, be the cause of at least 3 car accidents (all none fatal of course) and generate more then a few abdominal muscles from all the laugher it will bring (reminder: laugh WITH me, not AT me… no one likes a bully); all in the name of raising vital awareness (and funds) for prostate cancer research.


"Is prostate cancer even that big of a deal?"

Well considering;


* On average men live 4-5 years less than women


* 1 in 7 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime


* 25,500 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year in Canada


Mo or no Mo; If you know at least 7 "Bro's" I urge you to show your support by donating to my MoTeam at http://mobro.co/MrMullvember. If you are not comfortable with making payments online, you can still do things the old-fashioned way and write a cheque payable to "Movember Canada", reference my name, Registration Number 606882 and send it to: Movember Canada, 119 Spadina Avenue, PO Box 65, Toronto, ON M5T 2T2… As always; all donations are tax deductible.


"How do I know my money is going to the cause and not some weird Moustache support group?"

Go ahead Call My Bluff; visit the Movember website: http://ca.movember.com/about click on the "Programs We Fund" section and try not to let the types of work you'd be helping to fund go to your head. No one likes a cocky Bro… no matter how sweet your Mo.


Thank you in advance for supporting my efforts to change the face of men's health… one prostate at a time.


So in the words of my good friend Napoleon Dynamite;


"How long did it take you to grow that moustache?"
