Now a yearly club fundraising effort, again this Movember, our City SC coaches teamed up to raise vital funds and awareness for men’s health by attempting to grow ridiculous looking handlebar moustaches or taking up the ‘Move for Movember’ (walk/run/other 60+ miles) challenge in return for sponsorship/donations towards men’s health.
In total, our team of dedicated fundraisers managed to raise an impressive $2,936. Over the past eight years our City SC Movember team has raised $42,000 for Movember and Men’s Health.
Coach Glenn Malone raised the most money with a staggering total of $1,041 with Coach Sean Lines, DJ and Alex following not too far behind.
All in all, it was a valiant effort again. Well done team!
BACKGROUND
Since 2003, Movember has funded more than 1,250 men’s health projects around the world, challenging the status quo, shaking up men’s health research and transforming the way health services reach and support men. Movember is the leading global organization committed to changing the face of men’s health. They achieve this by challenging men/women to grow moustaches or ‘Move for Movember’ during Movember (the month formerly known as November) to spark conversation and raise funds for prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health problems.
