Call on your brothers, uncles, father, grandfathers, sons, sons-in-law, grandsons, and husbands to put down their razors and encourage them to grow their moustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of the most serious issues men face today—prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health.   

According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine, men are at greater risk for unhealthy choices, and many of them put off yearly checkups and medical assistance.  Because of this, men die prematurely.

The American Cancer Society indicates that 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in his lifetime, while testicular cancer remains the most common cancer in males between the ages of 15 and 35. 

You can register, join a team, and support this worthy cause with online donations.
