Hi all, Dont normally do this but... Movember is something that is very important to me personally. For those of you who dont know Movember is a charity drive that focus's on mens health and mental illness such as depression. As someone who suffered from depression this cause hits home of me. Basically those participating in this event spend the entire month of November growing a moe and collecting donations. Few small rules that you follow such as being clean shaven on the 1st of November ext, but I have particiapted in this event for the last 3 years running. I’d like you to support me as I fight the good fight. I'm restless for change and would love you to support my passion with a donation. You can donate to my moustache by: Donating online at: http://mobro.co/phillipstevens Your donation will support world class men's health programs that combat prostate and testicular cancer and mental health challenges. These programs, directed by the Movember Foundation, are focused on: - awareness and education - staying mentally healthy - living with and beyond cancer - living with and beyond mental illness - research All working to achieve our vision of an everlasting impact on the face of men's health. These funded programs are spread across Australia, please visit the Funded Programs page for all the hairy details: http://au.movember.com/programs Thanks in advance for supporting my Mo and helping to change the face of men's health, anything you donate will be a big help! United we Mo Phillip Stevens, aka Dran.
We have something similar in the States. We call it No-shavember. Same concept and same charity. It's awesome that you are doing this! I'd join you but I've been growing this beard for a while now and if I shaved it, my wife would divorce me. Good luck with your fundraiser man!
I am clean shaven today for the first time since March. I'm not raising any money for it, its just the first time I've been able to participate, so I thought I would give it a whirl.
We do have November in the States as well. The NHL is big on it. And as much as I love my beard, I think I'll give the 'stache a go this year. And luckily, I don't have to worry about your wife divorcing me.
Are you implying I shed!? How dare you! It must have been that terrible hamster Ben tried to send to Damion's ship.
I haven't seen the lower half of my face in 8 years, and frankly the thought of seeing it again unnerves me a bit.
Do it Solis! Face your fears! Im unable to particpate since im keeping my beard for my job interview and such, cause if i shave for it i cant gotto work with it. I would need to stay clean shaven . Good luck dran! Hope it goes well buddy
We do Movemeber in the UK to, this year i growing a full on Ming the Merciless beastie. I will donate to you this month Dran.
Thanks Manco! if you have an account shoot me the link, more than happy to donate to anyone else doing this as well (this goes for anyone else doing this as well )
So just an update, it's currently the 7th of Movember here in Future land and I have currently raised $311 so far. Pretty chuffed with myself! Below are two photos to show progress of my mo, enjoy! Before the shave: One week in: Hazzar for Mo's!
Thank you for the donation JChopper and I know the chin fluff is cheating, however I need to have some hair on my chin as I was born without one
So it is coming to the glorious end of Movember, and I have to say I am rather chuffed with my effort this year! Currently sitting at a comfortable $622 raised so far. However soon it will all come to a close and I will slowly progress back to my typical goatee/half beard that I am so fond of. Thanks again to those that have supported me this year and long live the mo!
