MOVEMBER! The full-month charity extravaganza known as Movember has begun. Throughout the month, men all over the world will grow mustaches (and the occasional beard) in an effort to raise awareness for men’s health issues with a primary focus on Testicular and Prostate Cancer. The international organizers of Movember have teamed up with the Lance Armstrong Foundation and Prostate Cancer Foundation and will be splitting the money raised by Movember between the two. The Prostate Cancer Foundation will use the money raised by Movember to fund research to find better treatments and a cure for prostate cancer, while the Lance Armstrong Foundation will use the money raised by Movember to fund the LIVESTRONG Young Adult Alliance program, which has the goal of improving survival rates and quality of life for young adults … Read entire article »

Movember Prelude

October 19th, 2009 | 1 Comment

As I eluded to about two weeks ago, November is quickly approaching and the time is nearly here to begin the fund raising bonanza for my charity of choice, Movember.

The website isn’t “active” until later this week, but in the meantime feel free to have a look-see at our Facebook group and Twitter page: Facebook – Movember Baltimore Twitter – @movemberbmore Website – movemberbaltimore.com Go right ahead and join up, please! And without further ado, the flier for said bar crawl: Registration for the bar crawl … Read entire article »

Unfortunately I’m a few days late for the beginning of Movember, the initiative to get males to grow mustaches throughout the month of November and raise awareness/get donations for the Prostate Cancer Foundation (R.I.P. DJS M.D. 1938-2001 <3). I’m participating this year and have shaved my face cleanly, as you can see. At any rate, I have started a team for fundraising, The Flirty Sanchezes, and I need your help! If you are interested in joining my team and helping to raise funds (you don’t have to do anything with your moustache unless you want to), head to http://us.movember.com/us/register and enter the following information: * Captain’s Registration Number: 1977166 * Captain’s Email Address: evan@citythatbreeds.com Or conversely and just as importantly, if you would like to donate money to the cause then click RIGHT HERE AND … Read entire article »
