Hello all, and sincere apologies to those in my contact list who receive
this multiple times.

It's just over half way through Movember <http://ca.movember.com/?home> 2014
and it's time to make a difference.

Men’s health is a cause I am passionate about but in order to make a
difference I need your help. My commitment was to grow a moustache for the
month of November and, in doing so, raise vital awareness and funds
for prostate
cancer <http://ca.movember.com/mens-health/prostate-cancer>, testicular
cancer <http://ca.movember.com/mens-health/testicular-cancer>, and male
mental health <http://ca.movember.com/mens-health/mental-health>.

I am asking you to help support my personal journey by making a donation.
The size of which isn’t important, every little bit helps Movember to
continue funding its world class programs <http://ca.movember.com/programs>.


To highlight the importance of what I am doing, take a look at these
statistics:
•    1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer
<http://ca.movember.com/mens-health/prostate-cancer> in their lifetime
•    Testicular cancer
<http://ca.movember.com/mens-health/testicular-cancer> is the most common
cance in men aged 15-29 years.
•    1 in 5 men in Canada will experience a mental health problem
<http://ca.movember.com/mens-health/mental-health> each year
•    In 2011, a total of 3728 Canadians died by suicide and over
three-quarters of these suicides were men

*If you’d like to help change these statistics, please donate
here: http://mobro.co/caramanos <http://mobro.co/caramanos>*

*There are just two weeks left, so please donate soon if you can* ... even
a small amount can help make a difference if lots of us get involved.  So
far, almost $34,000,000 has been raised world-wide, with the second largest
amount coming from right here in Canada (http://ca.movember
.com/leaderboards/).

Since 2003, it's gone from 30 moustachioed men from Melbourne Australia to
over a million Mo-Bros and Mo-Sistas from all over the world who have
raised over 600 million dollars  [See here
<http://www.ted.com/talks/adam_garone_healthier_men_one_moustache_at_a_time.html>
for
a charming TED talk by one of the original Mo-Bros, moustache-farmer Adam
Garone, about how Movember started and how far it has come.]

If you are interested, the Movember website <http://ca.movember.com/?home> is
an excellent resource for information on men's health issues
<http://ca.movember.com/mens-health> and the programs
<http://ca.movember.com/programs> that the money we are helping to raise
goes to fund.

Finally, see here
<http://www.ted.com/talks/kevin_breel_confessions_of_a_depressed_comic.html>
for
a touching TED talk by young comedian Kevin Breel about what it is like to
suffer from depression.


Thank you in advance for supporting our efforts to change the face of men's
health, and please spread the word.

For the 30 days of Movember I've committed to changing the face of men's
health, I'm asking you to support my efforts by making a donation at
http://mobro.co/caramanos.

 We need to take action as the current state of men's health is
unacceptable:

 ·      Men die on average 6 years earlier than women - there's no
biological reason
 ·      1 in 8 men will develop prostate cancer
 ·      Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men ages 15-29 years
 ·      In 2011, a total of 3728 Canadians died by suicide and over
three-quarters of these suicides were men

 The Movember Foundation is working around the clock and around the world
to improve the lives of men and their families affected by prostate cancer,
testicular cancer and mental health problems. They can't do this without
our support, so please support my efforts to make a difference.

please click here

 There's a lot riding on my efforts this Movember and I'd really appreciate
your support. Together, we can have an everlasting impact on the face of
men's health.
