3 minutes read time

The Movember Construction Ambassador Program is officially open for applications.

Do you have the confidence and a burning desire to do some good in the world?

Do you thrive on challenges and believe in the strength of community within Canada’s Construction Industry?

If so, Movember has the perfect opportunity for you.

We’re looking for dedicated Construction Ambassadors— men and women alike—to get involved and make a difference this Movember. Whether you’re working in Vancouver’s office towers or out on site across the country, we want you!

Applications are now open.

Why should you become a construction ambassador?

In 2023, we had over 100 construction companies take part in Movember’s Construction Challenge raising $700K in lifesaving funds and awareness for the 30 days of Movember. As a Construction Ambassador, you’ll be joining an elite group of leaders and change makers who will be at the forefront of this effort in 2024. You’ll have the opportunity to:

  1. Lead by example: Inspire your colleagues to join the cause, raise awareness, and fundraise for men’s health.
  2. Expand your network: Connect with professionals across the construction industry who share your passion for making a difference.
  3. Develop key skills: Gain experience in leadership, event management, and public speaking—valuable tools for your career and beyond.
  4. Create lasting impact: The funds and awareness you raise will directly support Movember’s vital work in mental health, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer.

What’s involved?

As a Construction Ambassador, your role will be to rally your workplace and the wider construction industry to take part in Movember. Here’s how you will make a difference:

  • Be a positive role model and ambassador for men’s health in your workplace
  • Be an engaging source of men’s health info for your colleagues and those around you
  • Recruit a committee of colleagues and senior team members to take part in Movember
  • Coordinate and lead a team that raises +$2,500 for the men’s health
  • Organize and host fundraising events throughout Movember
  • Give men’s health talks in your workplace

How we’ll support you

We don’t expect you to do this alone. As a Construction Ambassador, you’ll receive:

  • In-person training: An in-person training day in Vancouver on Friday 4th October, or an online training session for those who can’t attend the training in person.
  • Dedicated support: A Movember staff member to guide you every step of the way. Whatever you need, we’re here to help.
  • Exclusive swag: Show your Mo pride with our Ambassador pack, including T-shirt, Movember Flag, posters and other promo gear to bring your campaign to life.

Ready to get started?

Becoming a construction ambassador isn’t just a role—it’s an opportunity to make a real difference in your community and workplace. If you (or someone you know) are ready to lead, inspire, and make an impact, we want to hear from you.
