6 days in and divorce pending the 08 Movember campaign has commenced. This year it has the potential to be bigger and better than ever. There are some great prizes as we have been able to secure the VECC as one of the designated Movember parties for 2008. For those of you out there who are scared or unable to grow the mo you can still join in and raise some serious cash for a great cause.
Here are some stats that will no doubt scare you. The Hunter has the highest incidence of prostate cancer in Australia. Depression has hit males as young as 10 years old increasing significantly in the teenage and adult age brackets. Almost everyone in the club would know or know of someone who has suffered from prostate cancer, depression or sadly suicide. If you don't consider yourself very lucky because the older you get the more the chance you will know of someone.
How do you get involved see the website but essentially there are three ways.
Males
Grow a mo, get sponsorship and promote the cause. If you can't grow a mo for4 work or professional reasons get sponsorship, donate and rally the cause.
Females
Great opportunity to become Mo Sista's raising money, supporting the cause, supporting your partner who is busy growing.
Juniors
Get sponsors and a fake tash for the "junior tash of the year" last year we had some great entries.
How to donate
Never easier go to www.movember.com.au look up Valentine Eleebana Cricket Club and donate. You can also collect cash which will be donated in a bulk sum at the end of Movember. This year we are trying to raise $2000.00 lets go for it. There is a great (and I mean great) prize for the person in the club who raises the most money
Good luck
