The competition is fierce and the financial follicles are starting to come in. We're not even at the halfway mark.

Keep up the amazing work.

Week 1 of Movember is rounding up!

If you're Growing, we hope you've got some solid stubble making an appearance and those Mos are starting to take shape.

If you're Moving, Hosting, or Mo’ing Your Own Way, keep up the fantastic momentum—you're all doing an incredible job raising both funds and awareness for men's health!

So many teams are absolutely smashing it this year. Take a look at the Mo leaderboard below:

Hey RBC MoBros and MoSistas,

Thanks for joining the 2024 Movember campaign. We have 246 of you right now. This is about 120 less than we had last year. I'd appreciate if you could reach recruit a few of your colleagues to join - it is not too late. Also, please make sure you add a picture to your MoSpace. I'm really excited for this year's campaign. If you missed the Day 1 Kick off (Ready, Set, Mo!), here is a recap - https://connect.fg.rbc.com/groups/movember/blog/2024/11/01/recap-mo-day-1-ready-set-mo .

Happy Movember

Hey RBC MoBros and MoSistas,

We had such a great campaign this year! I’m proud of every aspect. We recruited – 362 member (up 82 from 2022). We moved 9,850km (up 2,644 from 2022). We had great company-wide virtual events; namely the Captains’ Meeting, Mo Day 1: Ready Set Me!, RBC Mental Health Panel and the Mo Gala. There were many local events put on by captains, including breakfasts, potlucks, caroling, rock climbing, panels, and presentations. There were many fake moustaches, really brave moustaches and epic moustaches. I love them all.

Fundraising continues until Dec 7th at 5pm, but we are looking good. We’ve raised $187,968 (up $11,887 from 2022). For the Bank Challenge, we are in second place behind CIBC’s $324,355 and comfortably ahead of BMO’s $176,905. I’ll have the final results on the Movember Connect page once the Challenge has concluded.

Thank-you for your commitment and support.

We've now arrived at Movember 30 and everyone in this challenge should pause for a moment to reflect on an amazing job done, what can only be described as an epic 'stache and an impressive commitment to help change the face of men's health.

As Mo season is coming to a close, I want to flag that the leaderboards will officially close on Thursday, December 7th at 5 pm EST, marking the moment we crown our 2023 Movember champions of each challenge. While donations can still be received after this time, please note that they won't contribute to the leaderboard race.

Thanks for all you have done this year and will continue to do as we move forward.

United We Mo!!!

Hello RBC MoBros and MoSistas!! We are 275 members strong and we have moved 4,218km. We are on the cusp of raising $100,000 in support of Movember. We are sitting third in the Banking Challenge behind CIBC and BMO. Let's end the month strong. Action items; First, if you haven't logged your moves get them in. Second, ask 3 more people today to support Men's Health through your Movember campaign.

Hey RBCers, we've grown our staches and the size of our crew. We are now in the itchy phase and have 186 people on the team. We have moved 1,254km. This puts us way out in the lead for membership and moves. For money raised, we've been blindsided by BMO jumping ahead of us. Satisfyingly, we have CIBC and TD behind us. Let's keep spreading the word about Men's Health. Make sure to get the Nov 15th Movember Panel in your calendar, details on the Movember Connect page.

Hello RBCers! There are 178 of us and so far we have moved 287km and raised $30,408. This means we are beating all the other banks on membership, moves and money. Keep up the good work - recruiting, walk/run, spreading the awareness.

ALERT! ALERT! ALERT!
TD Bank just jumped ahead of us in the Bank Challenge standings. We've been pushed into 3rd place. We are $6,000 behind them.
I need you to dig deep into your Rolodex. Send another email. Post on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Tik tok, MySpace. The moustaches might be gone, but we still need to fundraise. We have until Dec 9th @5pm. Let's finish strong!

We are just a few thousand dollars away from crossing $100,000 in fundraising. We have 283 members. We have made it 4,891km. We are amazing!!

We can't celebrate yet. We need to push. Contact that person that donated to you last year, but hasn't yet this year - they need a reminder. It's time to dig deep.
