Hey Guys,
I'm sure alot of you know that there is a charity event on at the moment called Movember. The idea is that you start the month with a clean shaven face, then over the course of the month concentrate and try to squeeze out as many hairs above your top lip as you can. Anyway, i'm currently participating in the event and am looking for donations.
The money raised by Movember is used to raise awareness of men's health issues and donated to the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia and beyondblue - the national depression initiative. The PCFA and beyondblue will use the funds to fund research and increase support networks for those men who suffer from prostate cancer and depression.
If you can spare a few dollars, please do, it is a great cause.
To donate to my Mo you can either:
Go to https://www.movember.com/au/donate/donate-details.php?action=sponsorlink&o=1573316&country=au (You will need to copy and paste rather than click.) and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account, or write a cheque payable to 'Movember Foundation', referencing my Registration Number 1573316 and mailing it to:
Movember Foundation
PO Box 292
Prahran VIC 3181
Remember, all donations over $2 are tax deductible.
*Depression affects 1 in 6 men....most don't seek help. Untreated depression is a leading risk factor for suicide.
*Last year in Australia 18,700 men were diagnosed with prostate cancer and more than 2,900 died of prostate cancer - equivalent to the number of women who will die from breast cancer annually.
I'll send an updated photo half way through, then a photo of the weedy growth at the end of the month.
Cheers,
Gus.
