"Movember"

As I'm sure some of my students have told you, I've decided to grow a moustache for the month of November in honor of prostate cancer awareness. This has become known as "Movember."

The month formerly known as November is a moustache growing charity event held during November each year that raises funds and awareness for men's health.

This year, the Halton District School Board has decided to sign up and create a team of mustachio'd male teachers in order to help raise money for prostate cancer awareness. I've decided to be one of those.

If you have the time, desire and or funds to donate, I'd appreciate that you do (despite how much we ask of you at River Oaks). Also, donations are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.

You can do so at my "Mo Page" through the HDSB's group page...HERE 

Remember, in 2010 tragically more than 4,400 men will die as a direct result of prostate cancer. And 1 and 6 men will develop prostate cancer in their life time.
