NAHL announces Movember campaign
During November each year, ‘Movember’ is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces, in the United States and around the world. With their Mo's, these men raise vital awareness and funds for men's health issues. This year, the North American Hockey League (NAHL) has announced that it will be a part of Movember with their own campaign involving all 24 teams and the over 550+ players in the league.
The NAHL Movember campaign is all about bringing back the moustache, having fun and doing it for a serious cause; men's health, specifically prostate and testicular cancer initiatives. Here is how it works: First, players in the NAHL will start Movember 1st clean shaven. For the rest of the month, these selfless and generous men, known as Mo Bros, groom, trim and wax their way into the annals of fine moustachery. Also supported by the women in their lives, Mo Sistas, the NAHL and their Movember Mo Bros raise funds for awareness for their Mo-growing efforts. Mo Bros effectively become walking, talking billboards for the 30 days of November.
Through their actions and words they raise awareness by prompting private and public conversation around the often ignored issue of men’s health. The moustache is the ribbon, the symbol which generates conversations, awareness and raise funds for men's health. By joining one of the NAHL teams, fans will automatically be a part of the their team’s NAHL Network page which is a great way to connect with the other teams and individuals and keep up to date with the other Movember Moustache merchants. Fans are encouraged to tweet pictures of their Mo's (mustaches) to @NAHLHockey
