Mo Bros and Mo Sistas,
In memory of loved ones we’ve lost, in honour of survivors with whom we stand tall, and in support of those dear and near embarking on their own personal illness journeys, I’m humbled to kick off the 2017 Movember campaign!
Last year, due simply to your generosity, I was able to raise an incredible $4,660 in support of prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health, and suicide prevention initiatives.
I appeal to you this year on the heels of a personal tragedy that stresses the sincere need for the work that organizations such as the Movember Foundation are undertaking.
This past August, I was devastated to lose my uncle to his silent battle with depression. Blindsided by the loss, my family is still left ravaged some two months later, overwhelmed with questions that we’ll simply never be able to answer.
For the 2017 campaign, I take up the torch in honour of men like my uncle, everyday superheroes confronted by the kryptonite of mental illness, and the families who work tirelessly to carry on their legacy.
