Excerpt:

By encouraging men to grow mustaches -- or "Mo's" - throughout November, the creators of the campaign aim to change "the face of men's health" and spread awareness. Nick Offerman with some mustache tips for Movember "Mo Bros effectively become walking, talking billboards for the 30 days of November," according to the campaign's web site. "Through their actions and words they raise awareness by prompting private and public conversation around the often ignored issue of men's health." Men are asked to start clean-shaven on November 1 and grow their mustache for the full 30 days, getting friends, family and colleagues to donate to their efforts. Women are also encouraged to participate in the campaign by starting teams and raising money. This year's campaign partners with the Prostate Cancer Foundation and the LIVESTRONG Foundation to directly fund research on these diseases treatments and to fund other support programs for men.
