A lazy fundraising campaign is taking place this November to raise money and awareness for men's health.
Chris Brewer, with the Livestrong Foundation, said Movember is a fundraising campaign that raises money for prostate and testicular cancer by having men refrain from shaving their mustache all month long.
"We're very happy and proud to be part of the laziest fundraising campaign in the world," Brewer said.
"Mo" is slang for mustache in Australia, where the idea for Movember got started.
"You have your mo bro's and your mo sisters, who are the women who support the guys, which is very important in men's health care issues," Brewer said. "And it's really as simple as growing a mustache, getting friends to rally around and do some unique fundraisers."
