Movember

movember

The month formerly known as November, where men proudly let their masculinity shine by growing a handsome moustache in support of men’s cancer research.

Last year Made Man, our readers, and our friends at Break raised over $40,000 in support of Movember (we were part of the movement that raised $120 million worldwide). This year, we want even Mo help (see what we did there?). So brace your face, and join the 2012 Mo’ed Men and Friends squad. Get your friends to join as well, then we’ll rally everyone we know to support us along the way.

As a partner of Movember, we’re going to spend the entire month showcasing Movember-inspired videos and articles to guide you along the way. That includes grooming tips from professional barbers, words of inspiration from famous masters of the Mo, and men’s health tips from some surprise guests.

Whether you’re growing like Ron Swanson, Ron Burgundy or you’re folically challenged, this is a perfect chance for a cause near and dear to us and our readers. Better yet, it gives you a sweet excuse for growing a moustache and instead of getting treated like a second class citizen, you’ll be treated like a philanthropist.

Let’s get growin’!
