The Movember Movement
November was men’s health month; Globally, men die on average 5 years earlier than women, and for reasons that are largely preventable. This means that it doesn’t have to be that way: we can all take action to live healthier, happier, and longer lives.
DTPM Joined in the Movember Campaign to help raise money for Men’s health and to “make a difference in mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer.” Our team decided to create a facial-friendly competition among willing DTPM team members to see how much money we could raise together! We gave them a chance to get themselves into an internal competition to see who had the best-looking mustache. We had 9 participants participate and their goal was to raise $100 dollars each. Our marketing department even pitched in, creating profiles and social media content to help them spread the word!
All month long our participants promoted their pages and their mustaches and as a group, DTPM was able to raise $1039 for Men’s Health.
WE RAISED $1,039 DOLLARS FOR MEN’S HEALTH!
1st Place | James Ray – $400 | |
