As you all know I am grow­ing a mous­tache again for Movem­ber.  I have decided to put down my razor for one month (Novem­ber) and help raise aware­ness and funds for men’s health – specif­i­cally prostate can­cer and depres­sion in men.

What many peo­ple don’t appre­ci­ate is that close to 600 men die of prostate can­cer each year in New Zealand and one in ten men will expe­ri­ence depres­sion in their life­time – many of whom don’t seek help. Facts like these have con­vinced me I should get involved and I am hop­ing that you will sup­port me.

To join my Movem­ber team go to http://nz.movember.com/register/5840 and fol­low steps. Once reg­is­tered you’ll be sent all the infor­ma­tion you need to get dona­tions and get grow­ing as part of my Movem­ber team.

To spon­sor my Mo, you can either:

•    Click this link http://nz.movember.com/mospace/17568/ and donate online using your credit card
•    Write a cheque payable to ‘Movem­ber’, ref­er­enc­ing my Reg­is­tra­tion Num­ber 17568 and mail­ing it to: Movem­ber, PO Box 12 708, Welling­ton 6144

Remem­ber, all dona­tions over $5 are tax deductible.
