Movember - Finally Over

The entire experience may have been worth this one photo. That, and the money we raised. Thanks mostly to the efforts of myself and E.C., our team, ShowMeMos, is #991 nationally in raising money. So thanks to those that gave, and for those that were going to, we still have a chance to climb the rankings through December 5th. You can still give.

Some important team members are missing, but here is most of the team and the spectacle that was Movember.

Movember Update

One week to go!

Growing a "mo" has been an uncomfortable experience, physically and socially. But just a few days ago I was reminded of the seriousness behind our silly fundraiser. A guy at my work was diagnosed with prostate cancer and is undergoing surgery. He's a runner, in great shape, and always has a very positive attitude. It's sobering.

I've helped raise $150.00 from people at my office. If you haven't given and have an opportunity, you can donate any amount, it's all helpful:

Movember

I'm always up for a gimmick. If the fun also benefits something worthwhile, even better. In the month of November, now known as Movember, I will be growing a moustache. It's a worldwide event to raise awareness and funding for research of cancers that affect men, specifically prostate and testicular cancer. I'm more into the awareness than the fundraising, but if you would like to donate, you can HERE. Any amount, no matter how small (no pun intended) is welcome.

Here's my starting shot:


By the end of Movember I think I'll look like Josh Brolin from "No Country For Old Men."


Or maybe I'll go with the "Clark Gable" for the ladies.



I'll keep you posted. Or, maybe I'll only email the updates to those that donate...
