Grow a Moustache for Prostate Cancer Awareness in "Movember"!

The Movember Foundation is back at it again this year as it seeks to promote prostate and testicular cancer awareness by having thousands of men around the world grow moustaches throughout November.

For those of you who aren't familiar, "mo" is slang for moustache in Australia (from which the founders of the Movember Foundation hail).

The foundation was started in 2003 in Australia and has been active in the U.S. for the past 3 years. So far, they have raised nearly $50 million for prostate cancer research worldwide.

Kudos to the Movember Foundation for a fun, innovative, and effective campaign to raise awareness and money about male cancers!
