From prevention, to survivorship, through to finding a better screening test and treatment options for prostate cancer- Movember is having an incredible impact.
During the campaign Movember educates the participating Mo Bros and Mo Sistas about how to prevent cancer through diet, fitness, lifestyle choices, an annual physical and preventative screening. These messages are not only getting through to these men and women, they are having a significant impact. A recent survey of the Movember community found that because of their involvement in the campaign, 39% of Mo Bros sought medical advice, while 36% encouraged someone else to seek medical advice.
For the 2010 campaign, Movember will again be raising funds for the Prostate Cancer Canada. Check out the video below to see how the funds you helped raise are being put to work by Prostate Cancer Canada for the development of programs related to awareness, public education, advocacy, support of those affected and research into the prevention, detection, treatment and cure of prostate cancer.
