Default Re: S.O.C.O. Supports MOVEMBER 2012

Sparkie and I are off to a good start! We will have on going pics uploaded every few days

If you are wondering where the donations go...

"The funds that Movember raise are invested in programs that address the strategic priorities Movember has identified, related to both prostate cancer and male mental health.

Globally, fighting prostate cancer continues to be Movember’s highest priority. There are still many issues to be addressed, particularly when it comes to diagnosis - a key focus for many Movember funded research programs. Today, there still isn't a test that accurately tells a man which type of prostate cancer he has, resulting in many men being over-diagnosed and having to undergo unnecessary and harmful treatment. Equally important to Movember are Survivorship programs. Diagnosis is just the first step in a man's prostate cancer journey; Survivorship is the next and these programs can have a dramatic impact on the quality of life of men and their families and carers; they can mean the difference between men living a meaningful, quality life and just living." ...........
