The Movember Foundation


When our razors look brand new for weeks and our shaving cream cans collect dust in our bathrooms, it can only mean one thing, it’s “Movember.” Since 2003, the Movember Foundation has been committed to raising awareness and funds for men’s health.

From 30 guys back in 2003 to the 5 million Mo Bros and Mo Sistas there are today. The movember foundation has raised over $650 million dollars and funded over 1,000 programs that focus on some of the biggest health issues faced by men such as prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and physical inactivity.

1. Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men in the US.
2. Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in young men aged 15-34 in the US.
3. Around 1 in 4 adults in the US will experience a mental health problem in a given year.
4. Around half (53.8%) of American men meet the federal guidelines for physical activity.

To tackle these issues the movember foundation has established their Global Action Plan (GAP), which connects clinicians and researchers from around the world to accelerate health outcomes for men living with prostate and testicular cancer. In 2013, they invested in mental health programs by partnering with the US to develop and implement actionable, community-level prevention plans to improve mental health for men and boys. By 2015 men’s physical health became their newest focus and they began investing in initiatives that encourage physical activity and raises awareness on the dangers of physical inactivity.

As movember approaches decide how you want to help men live happier, healthier, longer lives. Make your move by taking this year’s MOVE challenge or make a statement with your mustache. No matter what you choose to do remember that the movember foundation wouldn’t be where it is without the enthusiasm of all you.
