Events and campaigns in HK to support The Movember Foundation

The month of the moustache is upon us Sassy Girls, and whether you love them or hate them, The Movember Foundation is leading a global commitment to change the face (quite literally) of men’s health. Having raise dover $5 billion dollars in funds for prostate cancer and poor mental health since 2003, this is definitely a charity we can get behind – facial hair aside! This year Movember is all about moving, and whether you simply want to support your S/O in growing his tash by making a donation, or just fancy getting involved, expect to see a surge in furry upper lips and a lot more MOVEment in the city! Be sure to register as an honorary Mo Sista and check out some of the events and campaigns happening across HK this month…
