In November Mo Bros take action by changing their appearance through the growth of a new moustache for the 30 days of Movember, and in doing so become walking, talking billboards for men’s health. But it’s not just for bros … Mo Sistas sign up and commit to supporting the men in their lives while helping to promote men’s health at home, in the workplace and within their community.
hanging a Movember men’s health poster in the halls of your school. You can order really cool promo stuff online.
MOVEMBER ON CAMPUS
GROW A MO FOR 30 DAYS
Nothing brings strict teachers, lovely librarians, class clowns, and everyone on campus together like Movember. Rallying around the moustache is a fantastic way to unite a university or school. The level of education doesn’t matter when it comes to having fun while raising funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate and testicular cancer.
DON’T MO ALONE
There is strength in numbers, so recruit your whole class or the entire school to join the hairy journey by creating or joining a Movember team. Moustaches are Movember. Thin and wispy or thick and full – the size of a Mo doesn’t matter as long it’s in accordance with the official rules: no beards or goatees.

Spread the word of the Mo wherever possible to drum up support on campus. You could target your course email list, put posters up, post about Movember on Facebook or give a pre-class shout out. Contact the sports team and the
other extra-circular associations to see if they want to join your team (or start their own). Once you’ve built your team, keep the momentum going by finding prizes for the best Mo of the week. If you can’t make it to the nearest official Movember Gala, host your own! Award the titles of Man of Movember and Miss Movember for your school. Challenge your teacher to a Mo-off. The best Mo at the end of the month chooses the other’s costume at the Movember Party.
And remember … the Mo the merrier!
