Movember

Hi all,

During Movember (the month formerly known as November) I’ll be growin a

moustache. That’s right I’m bringing the Mo back because I’m passionate

about changing the state of men’s health.

Male health is a major issue, did you know:

Men are far less healthy than women. The average life expectancy of males is

6 years less than females.

Every year in Australia 2,700 men die of prostate cancer – more than the

number of women who die from breast cancer.

Depression affects 1 in 6 men…Most don’t seek help. Untreated depression is

a leading risk factor for suicide. Rates of suicide are more than double the

national road toll.

Help me change the face of men’s health by sponsoring my mo.

Please go to http://www.movember.com/au/sponsor, enter my Rego number which

is 1805 and your credit card details. All donations of $2 and over are tax

deductible.

The money raised by Movember will be used to change the face of men's health

by creating awareness and funding research into prostate cancer and male

depression.

Movember culminates at the end of the month at the Gala Partè where I’ll be

parading my Mo on the cat walk for a chance to be crowned the Man of

Movember. If you want to be part of this great night you’ll have to purchase

a Gala Parte ticket for $33.00 (inc GST).

Cheers

Gibbo

i'd hate to see the snivel libitarians start calling it a sexist competition :1prop:

Hmmmm no sexism on that site Brian

To become a mo sista I would have to lead a team of mo men

Perhaps next year I will call for teamies :biggrin2: and will keep you in mind Brian :074:
