Those funds go towards programs run directly by Movember and our men’s health partner, Prostate Cancer Canada, in the areas of prostate cancer awareness and education, survivorship and research.

This year, Movember is proud to announce that it will address both prostate cancer and male mental health with the funds raised. Mental health is a new addition for Movember Canada and a critical issue for men with one in five men experiencing a mental health issue this year.
