I’m growing my Mo to raise awareness about early detection. My Father was diagnosed with cancer, and due to it being caught early enough, he has survived. It is so important for all of us men to have our check-ups regularly!

Please support my mo-space here: http://ca.movember.com/mospace/1156860/

Thanks Brides’ Project!

Ross

Thank YOU, Ross! Your mo’ is our forty-seventh Movember mo’ and worthy of a $100 donation to beef up your fundraising page. Congrats!

Our forty-sixth Movember mo’ pic is of Farzam, sent in by his wife Melody. The fullness of his mo’ is quite a feat!

Another amazing feat is that Farzam already raised nearly $1,300 before we sponsored him! We are very pleased to add $100 to his fundraising page and encourage you to do the same:

Farzam’s team, The Mo-Fro’s, have raised nearly $2,800 and we high-five them all!

Our forty-fifth Movember mo’ was sent to us by Kyra. Her husband Peter’s mo’ is in vintage sepia, midway through its growth cycle.

A friend sent along your website and encouraged me to post a pic of my husband’s stache. Great idea to raise awareness and I think it’s really cool that you’re pledging $5,000 to the cause!

Congratulations, Peter! Your mo’ received another $100 from us. Here’s Peter’s fundraising page, where you can sponsor him and Team Greasy Stache:

Hi everybody! The 50th Movember mo’ was submitted Saturday!

Actually, 51 mo’s were submitted today, because the last email had TWO mo’s in it… we couldn’t sponsor one mo’ and not the other, so we donated $100 to each!

That means we’ve reached exceeded our cap of $5,000 worth of donations to the 2010 Movember Canada campaign, sponsoring 51 splendiforous moustaches on 51 terrific fundraisers out there. We thank you all for participating and sending in your pictures, the last six seven of which we will post shortly.

We began our mo’ drive on November 7th and today’s the 13th, so in just SIX DAYS you guys (and gals) came through…! Give yourselves a hand! *applause*

This is Tim, he is part of the MoMedic team for Movember. Him and many other paramedics of Peterborough County got together to help raise money for this great cause.

Please consider donating to their team at: http://ca.movember.com/mospace/713576/

Thank you for contributing to the MoMedics of Peterborough County.

Tim, that mo’ is the envy of Peterborough! We’re proud to sponsor this fine specimen with $100 at your Movember fundraising page, and encourage others to do the same.

We are sponsoring up to 6 MORE moustachios $100 each for a grand total of $5,000 to this year’s Movember campaign. Don’t be a slow mo’, get your entry in today! Deadline is November 30.

I’m growing my MO for many reasons, but the main one is for my uncle. He’s a survivor, and even though he doesn’t think he’s done anything special he’s special to me.

Thank you for supporting my Mo!

I would like to submit this photo of my boyfriend and his new friend (which I’m currently trying to get used to), Mo. I normally don’t like him with a moustache, but he is growing his moustache for such a great cause and I’m so proud of him! He is beginning to look spanish. When I was younger I always thought I would date a spanish guy!!

Our thirty-seventh Movember mo’ was submitted today by Kelly:

Since my other half, Joseph is in the USA trying to raise donations from our brothers and sisters from down under I thought I would submit a photo on his behalf and get the ball rolling here. I know he is doing this because cancer has touched almost everybody’s life in some form or another including mine. And he grows a mean moustache!

I would like to thank you for your donations to our team and to Joseph if this email makes it on time.

Here is his Movember page: http://ca.movember.com/mospace/655334/

Another Mo’ Sista for our thirty-sixth Movember Mo’!

I’m supporting Movember this year as a Mo Sista. While I haven’t quite figured out how to grow my own moustache, I have been testing out alternatives including the eyeliner stache, fingerstache, and hairstache (see attached).

My fundraising page is: http://ca.movember.com/mospace/657074/

Dear Bride’s Project,

Attached to this email is Brian. This year, he joined Movember to help a good cause and to show the world that he ACTUALLY CAN grow a moustache. His motivation is Mario. By the end of Movember, he will become Mario!

His page is: http://ca.movember.com/mospace/1068546/

Have a great Movember!

Dear Bride’s Project,

This is Tony. He is the wonderful guy who works beside me. After much contemplation about using stick-on moustaches, he finally decided in the end that he would grow his own. For this worthy cause, Tony is growing a moustache for the first time in… he does not even remember when! What colour will his moustache be? There’s only one way to find out!

Here is his page: http://ca.movember.com/mospace/1205188/

Have a great Movember everyone!

- Special K

Our thirty-third Movember mo’ is also a veteran of Movember: this is Lucas’s third year! His ‘stache pic was submitted by Stacy, and we’re pleased to add $100 to his sponsorship page today.

Here is a picture of my bf, Lucas, with the beginning of what (we hope) will become a nice, full handle-bar ‘stache. I’m so proud that this will be his third year participating in Movember. He has raised a lot of money and a lot of awareness for Prostate Cancer Canada…and he has also managed to convince a bunch of his buddies to participate too. He rocks!

I’m also so happy that The Brides Project will be helping to support Movember by donating $100 for sending in this pic. That’s incredible!

I appreciate your contribution in supporting the Prostate Cancer Society and all the participants in Movember.

Our thirtieth Movember mo’ is so splendid, so brilliant, it has a name! Another super-stellar TBP volunteer, Kristin, sent in a pic of her hubby Matt and his majestic mo’. Feast your eyes on this!

Here is the ever so charming photo of my very moustached hubby.

With his ‘old timey’ haircut, his mad men-esque glasses, and the majesty of his new moustache (yes, he refers to his moustache as his ‘majesty’), my husband feels sexier than ever! Really, what lady can resist the point dexter look? Thanks Movember! (And thank you Helen!)”
