[bioundgrd] Movember: Hairy Philanthropy

[Joyce Roberge]

Hey everyone!

Want an excuse not to shave for a whole month?  Well come on over to the hairy side of philanthropy. Create a team for Movember and fight the good fight with facial hair.

Movember is an Australian-originated organization that raises awareness for men's health through the growing of mustaches ("Mo" = Mustache in Australian).  Start clean shaven November 1st and grow out your facial hair throughout the month.  Each team member asks friends and family members to donate to their growing stache for a good cause.  All proceeds are donated to prostate cancer research and other cancers that affect men's health.  Movember raised over $80 million globally last year alone!

Want to be a Mo-Sista?  Gather your hairiest male friends and create a team of your own!

The most fun part is at the end of November, Movember throws a huge Gala Parte in Boston for all Movember participants (girls and guys!).

Register a new team under the MIT Network here (by Nov1st!): http://us.movember.com/mospace/network/MIT
Check out the current teams for AeroAstro, HST, and Sloan, or create one completely new!

Emily and Your MIT Movember reps!
