Four ways to support Movember this November
The moustache might be Movember’s most recognisable symbol, but there are plenty of ways to take part without growing one. Choose an activity you’ll enjoy, invite someone to join you and turn it into a fundraiser for men’s health.
1. Walk or run 60km
Move for Movember challenges you to walk or run 60km across November. That works out to an average of 2km a day, although you can spread the distance across the month however you like.
Try a lunchtime loop with a colleague, an evening walk with a friend or a weekend run. Register for Move, set up your fundraising page and share your progress so people can support you.
2. Host a Mo-ment
Prefer bringing people together? Host a Mo-ment could be your option. Organise a trivia night, a games afternoon or a morning tea, and invite guests to donate through your fundraising page.
Keep the plan manageable: pick a date, choose one activity and send the invitation with the donation link.
3. Mo Your Own Way
Movember’s Mo Your Own Way option lets you create your own fundraising challenge. It could be a sponsored karaoke session, a personal challenge or an event built around a hobby.
Choose something you can explain in a sentence: what you’re doing, when you’re doing it and how people can donate.
4. Back someone else’s effort
You can also support a friend or colleague who’s taking part. Donate if your budget allows, share their fundraising page with their permission or help organise their event.
Ask what would be useful. They might appreciate company on a walk or someone to help run the trivia night.
