Don’t trash the stache
Hi All,
During Movember (the month formerly known as November) I’m growing a Moustache. That’s right I’m bringing the Mo back because I’m passionate about tackling men’s health issues and being proactive in the fight against prostate cancer.
To donate to my Mo you can either:
-
Click this link https://www.movember.com/ca/donate/donate-details.php?action=sponsorlink®o=1770496&country=ca and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account, or
-
Write a cheque payable to the ‘Prostate Cancer Research Foundation of Canada’, referencing my Registration Number 1770496 and mailing it to:
Prostate Cancer Research Foundation of Canada
Attn: Movember
145 Front Street East
Suite 306
Toronto Ontario M5A 1E3
Donations are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.
The money raised by Movember is donated directly to the Prostate Cancer Research Foundation of Canada who will use the funds to create awareness and fund research across the country into prevention, detection and treatment, with a goal to ending the threat of prostate cancer.
Did you know:
- Every year around 24,700 Canadian men are diagnosed with prostate cancer and about 4,300 die of the disease, making it the number one cancer threat to Canadian men.
- 1 in 7 men will develop prostate cancer in their lifetime.
- All men over the age of 40 are potentially at risk and should talk to their doctor about the disease and early detection. Prostate cancer is 95% curable if detected and treated early.
I’ll be posting progress photos throughout the month.
Thanks for your support,
Rick.

I commend your efforts Rick. My Dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1997, had it removed and has been cancer free since. Catching it early is so vitally important and creating awareness is one way to do this. Bravo!
