Movember 2008

So I'm doing Movember this year. Not entirely sure why, but thought it would be a bit of fun, plus it's doing something for charity - assuming I manage to collect some donations :p

What is Movember, you ask? An excerpt from their website:

Men lack awareness about the very real health issues they face. There is an attitude that they have to be tough - "a real man" - and are reluctant to see a doctor about an illness or go for regular medical checks.

Movember aims to change these attitudes and make men's health fun by putting the Mo back on the face of fashion and in the process raise some serious funds for key men's health issues, including:

Prostate Cancer: because every year 2,900 Australian men die from prostate cancer and over 18,000 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer.

Depression in Men: because one in six men experience depression at any given time but most don't seek help.

Please donate to me, or visit My Mo-Space

I believe any donation above $2 is tax deductible (in Australia), and I think you can donate over the net too :)

Thanks!
