This November, staff members at FrontRunner Professional will be participating in a Movember fundraising campaign in support of men’s health. Movember is the leading charity dedicated to changing the face of men’s health in the US and around the world. Best known for their annual Movember fundraising campaign that takes place every November, they fund various projects and receive donations year-round.
During Movember, men start November 1st clean-shaven and grow only a moustache for the month, getting friends, family and colleagues to donate to their effort. All of this support will help change the face of men’s health by raising funds and awareness for mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer.
In 2019 alone, nearly 400,000 men and women took part in fundraising efforts to raise $109.8 million dollars in support of various men’s health projects and initiatives. In fact, since launching in 2003, the Movemeber Foundation has helped fund more than 1250 men’s health projects and raised $1.13 billion dollars globally.
“Movember is a special organization that FrontRunner is proud to support. We know that men’s health often gets overlooked and this fundraiser is all about generating awareness for men to take charge of their health and make it a priority. Our team is excited to take on this challenge and see how much money we can help raise” says Tommy Heigh, captain of the FrontRunner Movember team.
It’s not just FrontRunner employees who will be raising money for this year’s Movember campaign. As a company, FrontRunner has also pledged to donate a portion of each website sale made during the month to the team’s fundraising efforts.
“When our team approached us about this initiative, we immediately approved it. The Movember Foundation is doing incredible things to support men’s health and we couldn’t be prouder of our team for wanting to take part and get involved with this charitable organization. That’s why we’ve pledged to donate a portion of each website sale made this month to the fundraising efforts. As part of our corporate social responsibility, we’re committed to giving back and supporting meaningful causes. We’re excited to add the Movember Foundation to the list of charities and organizations we support” adds Jules Green, CEO of FrontRunner.
