Target: $7,500
raised $109,425 since 2012
My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Prostate cancer
Testicular cancer
Mental health and suicide prevention

I used to grow a terribly cheesy moustache & look like a pedophile or 70's porn star. It always drew attention to Movember and that's all that really matters.
Since 2012, I have raised over $106,500 for Movember.
I had a prostate cancer scare in 2014, which made me focus more attention on my health & men's health.
In 2017, we lost our home to the BC Wildfires, which opened my eyes to mental health issues, both personally and in general! I work in the male dominated forest industry and see a lot of men working in isolation and living unhealthy lifestyles.
I hope my Movember initiatives continue to help raise awareness of Men's Health Issues (Prostate Cancer, Testicular Cancer, Mental Health, Mental Illness, Suicide Prevention, Physical Inactivity, Healthy Eating & Lifestyle Choices).

Amber's donation kicked me to $3,800 raised in 2023 and put me over 50% of my fundraising target, and its only November 7, 2023!
