If you aren’t aware of MOVEMBER, now’s the time to GET aware!! Movember’s vision is
to have an everlasting impact on the face of men’s health. During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of millions of moustaches on men’s faces around the world. Through the power of the Mo, vital funds and awareness are raised to combat prostate and testicular cancer and mental health challenges.
Movember encourages men to join the movement by growing a moustache for the 30-days of November. After REGISTERING on Movember.com, these generous Mo Bros start the month clean-shaven, then grow and groom their Mo (slang for moustache), asking friends and family to donate to their efforts. With their new moustaches, these Mo Bros bring much needed awareness to men’s health issues by prompting conversations wherever they go.
Movember’s not just for men! Mo Sistas are an important part of Movember’s success. Once REGISTERED, Mo Sistas raise funds and encourage the men in their lives to get involved. Essentially, Mo Sistas do everything that Mo Bros do, without a Mo. Learn more about Mo Sistas HERE.
At the end of the month, Mo Bros and Mo Sistas celebrate their Movember journey by throwing their own Movember EVENTS or attending one of the official GALA PARTÉS held around the world.
In honor of Movember, The Whisper Restaurant & Lounge at The Grove has created the Mo Better Bourbon cocktail. For all those participating in Movember, the restaurant will offer a 10% discount on the Mo Better Bourbon cocktail and the restaurant will donate a $1 to the Movember Foundation for each cocktail purchased.
Does that get your attention? Here’s a restaurant willing to put $$ where your mouth is – meaning if you buy the drink they give you a discount + donate to the charity!! In case you aren’t in LA — or want to do a MOVEMBER fundraising party or poker bash, here’s the cocktail. Perhaps it’s a way to charge an admission fee to the event and donate those proceeds to the charity! It’s a thought!!
