Movember

A friend of mine recently passed away from a rare type of cancer. I have joined a campaign called movember where you grow a moustache to raise awareness and money for prostate cancer. If every one on NS.com donated just $1 we could raise over $60,000. We are a pretty tight and powerful community. Please be thoughtful, selfless, generous, and help this good cause. To donate go to http://ca.movember.com/register/140494

and to see a tribute to my friend Shaun G go to http://mattmargetts.com

spread the word about movember, post it on your facebooks, twitters, send out emails, do everything you can, lets try and make a difference.

thanks so much for your time.

Really great way to raise awareness for prostate cancer, marg. I really like this idea. I will be very, very sure to spread the word amongst people I know.

A lot of people around here are doing the whole movember thing. I would be, but I'm trying to get a job.

I am on a team as well. Have donated $25 but raised nothing (except awareness). The only bad part is that I can not grow the stasche at all! Like you can't see anything. I am 21 haha.

but yeah, please donate to this cause! Plus it's not too late to join a team and start growing.

I've just learned every penny counts, it's crazy how it all adds up. Please donate

you could use the stache to your advantage in the job hunt. tell your interviewer about your team and how much money youve raised with your mustache and they'll totally remember you.

I think he's talking about growing a mustache, not about donating.
