Movember Dads Get Fuzzy for Men’s Health Cause

October 27, 2016 by Kevin McKeever

Movember Dads are fatherly dudes who grow mustaches during the month of November to promote the need for more attention to men’s health issues.

Gentlemen, start your mustaches.

Tuesday brings the start of November, aka “Movember.” It’s the time when the good men of City Dads Group and several other fatherhood friendly organizations grow a living awareness ribbon under their nose to promote the cause of improving men’s health.

The Movember Foundation, the sponsor, is a leading global organization committed to literally and figuratively changing the face of men’s health. It challenges men to grow mustaches during November to spark conversation and raise funds for prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health problems, such as depression, anxiety, psychosis and schizophrenia. Since starting in 2003, the organization has raised more than $710 million and help fund more than 1,200 men’s health projects, according to its website.

As it has for the past several years, City Dads Groups will join forces with the Life of Dad social network, Dad 2.0 Summit and The National At-Home Dad Network to create a team of fundraising fathers.

City Dads Group, starting with its founding NYC Dads Group outpost in 2011, has raised more than $90,000 in direct donations and sponsorship matches in the past four years with our fellow #MovemberDads mustaches partners. To help us, click the link below:
