Leading Men's Health Charity, Movember Receives Support From Corporate Partners In Raising Funds And Awareness For Men's Health


LOS ANGELES, Oct. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- As Movember heads into their busiest fundraising moment of the year, the leading global men's health charity, announced their top corporate partners for 2020.

Since inception, Movember has proudly welcomed more than five million supporters and has funded more than 1,250 innovative men's health projects across 20 countries in prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention. None of this would be possible without corporate partners who support Movember's work.

"It's been a tough year for many of us and yet we've had tremendous support from our corporate partners," said Elizabeth Phipps Drewett, Director of Corporate Partners for the US, UK and Europe of Movember. "Now more than ever it's important for us to be continuing these crucial conversations in helping raise awareness about men's health."

Bluestone Lane
We'll provide the coffee, you provide the conversation. Returning for the third year, Bluestone Lane is setting a new challenge and encouraging locals to take an afternoon break and check in with one another. The goal is to promote having those tough conversations, and to spark change around the health and wellbeing of you, your loved ones, and your community. Join the Bluestone Lane Challenge by October 31 and enjoy free coffee from Bluestone Lane every afternoon throughout Movember.

SELF/ish's Clean Science formulations use only safe, biocompatible ingredients with a focus on skin-boosting actives that target men's unique skincare needs.

Their $5 Give Back on every Facial Scrub and Facial Cleanser sold goes to supporting Movember.
