Author: Movember, Date: 22 April 2013
The hairy efforts of Mo’s across the globe during the month of Movember made for some exceptional moustaches, but do you have any idea of the impact they made?
Rewind to the beginning of Movember 2012, as fine moustaches started to sprout on men’s upper lips worldwide, they began to have men’s health conversations - at work, at the gym, through Twitter and Facebook – spreading awareness about Movember and generating over 2.27 billion conversations worldwide. But that isn’t the end of the story. All that Mo chatter inspired some serious fundraising.
There were nearly 4 million individual donations to Movember in 2012, which raised an unbelievable, humbling, record-breaking £88.2 million. To date, over 400 programmes have been funded by our Mo Bros and Mo Sistas.
These programmes will provide education and awareness about prostate and testicular cancer, fund vital research and assist men and their families going through the cancer journey. From real moustaches to real outcomes, you are truly changing the face of men’s health. For this, we salute you – all 1.13 million of you.
Best. Movember. Ever.
