maalouly Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Dear Friends, I am growing a moustache this year for Movember. I have decided to put down my razor for one month (November) and help raise awareness and funds for men’s health – specifically prostate cancer and depression in men. What many people don’t appreciate is that close to 3,000 men die of prostate cancer each year in Australia and one in eight men will experience depression in their lifetime - many of whom don’t seek help. Facts like these have convinced me I should get involved and I am hoping that you will support me. To sponsor my Mo, you can either: • Click this link https://www.movember.com/au/donate/your-det...mber_id/461451/ and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account • Write a cheque payable to ‘Movember Foundation’, referencing my Registration Number 461451 and mailing it to: Movember Foundation, PO Box 292, Prahran, VIC, 3181 Remember, all donations over $2 are tax deductible. Movember is now in its sixth year and, to date, has achieved some pretty amazing results by working alongside The Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCFA) and beyondblue: the national depression initiative. Check out further details at: http://au.movemberfoundation.com/research-and-programs. If you are interested in following the progress of my Mo, click here http://au.movember.com/mospace/461451/. Also, http://au.movember.com has heaps of useful information. I really appreciate your help guys and I hope we can raise money towards a great cause. Please let me know when you make a donation and the amount, I will be creating a list and posting it at the end of the month. Cheers, Elie.

sfordham Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 I would donate, but a coworker and I am doing the same thing here in US. Nice Mo by the way. I went for the "trucker" myself - my buddy has the boss-man! Great cause..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Presidente Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 great cause Elie. Will donate before the weekends out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zuma Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Well, it is really cool to see that more than one of us is doing it... Though I may not as be as successful at raising funds as your team, I am a registered Mo Bro growing an Alatriste-style moustache I'd post my link to my mospace, but it'd be inappropriate for me to hijack Mo Bro Ellie's thread (it is all going to the same cause). So.. Dig Deep and donate to Ellie fellas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmith Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Great Mo Elie, I have been sporting a 70s footballers Mo similar to what the great George Best would wear. It will make an appearence at the next cigar review. Have you been scoring your free hamburgers at Grill'd Burgers. Head down there for lunch and it looks like a 1970s film set all men and their Mos and not a female in sight. Had a beer with FreeFallGuy yesterday on his way back to the States and he was sporting a fine Mo also, well done mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dochowl Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Great cause Elie... Is it just me, or does your moustache match your hat (gold speckled) in the second picture? Not sure how you worked that out, but I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dochowl Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Another fine stache Smithy... here in the states, I might be more inclined to think it more a 70s porn star stache. You're definitely channeling the late and great Mr. Holmes... Great Mo Elie, I have been sporting a 70s footballers Mo similar to what the great George Best would wear.
