MOVEMBER IS BACK!!!!

 Guess what month it is? GUESS WHAT MONTH IT IS??? It's MOVEMBER! Last year's Waldwick Warrior team raised over $900 for the Movember charity. This time, we are hoping for more student and faculty participation.

This year, we are ALLOWING team members to grow facial hair other than mustaches. That means beards, goatees, etc. are allowed! We are asking for a minimum donation of $2.00-$5.00 for any student participating in this year's team. All students are welcome to donate more.

Just a reminder, the Movember charity is an official global charity. Movember’s vision is to have an everlasting impact on the face of men’s health. Through the power of the Mo, vital funds and awareness are raised to combat prostate and testicular cancer and mental health challenges.

 I have created a Waldwick Warriors Page and hope to get as many students and faculty members as possible to join.  Registration is free, and if you have any issues please let me know. You do not need to participate in order to donate, and friends and family are welcome to join our team as well, it is open to the public.

 OVERVIEW OF MOVEMBER During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces, in the US and around the world. With their Mo's, these men raise vital awareness and funds for men's health issues, specifically prostate and testicular cancer initiatives.

Once registered at www.movember.com, men start Movember 1st clean shaven. For the rest of the month, these selfless and generous men, known as Mo Bros, groom, trim and wax their way into the annals of fine moustachery. Supported by the women in their lives, Mo Sistas, Movember Mo Bros raise funds by seeking out sponsorship for their Mo-growing efforts.

Mo Bros effectively become walking, talking billboards for the 30 days of November. Through their actions and words they raise awareness by prompting private and public conversation around the often ignored issue of men’s health. Where does the money go???? --- http://us.movember.com/about/money/
