Movember

November 22, 2009

On November 1, 2009 I will… transform.

Follicular Manslaughter

I have decided to join a global movement that is bringing much needed attention to cancers that affect men. I’m doing this by growing a Moustache this Movember, the month formerly known as November. My commitment is to grow a moustache all November and I am hoping that you will support my efforts by making a donation. The funds raised go to the Prostate Cancer Foundation and the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LIVESTRONG).

What many people don’t know is that 1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime and testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men aged 18-35. Facts like these have convinced me I should get involved.

To make a donation, you can either:

• Click this link to donate to my team online using your credit card or PayPal account , or
• Write a check payable to ‘Movember Foundation’, referencing my Registration Number 144915 and mailing it to: Movember Foundation, PO Box 2726, Venice, CA 90294-2726.

All donations are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law.

The Dude, The Villain, The Biker, The Barber, The BlandThe Prostate Cancer Foundation will use the money raised by Movember to fund research to find better treatments and a cure for prostate cancer.

The Lance Armstrong Foundation will use the money raised by Movember to fund:

• The LIVESTRONG Young Adult Alliance program which has the goal of improving survival rates and quality of life for young adults with cancer between the ages of 15 and 40.
• Research initiatives to further understand the biology of adolescent and young adult cancers.

This is meant to be both positive and fun… and in that regard I welcome you to select and vote on what style moustache I shall be growing for this worthy cause and join my team! :)

Update: January 12, 2010 Hell freezes over Background: TechCrunch is having their RealTime CrunchUp event and solicited comments from the founder of Gmail, FriendFeed — Paul Buchheit — now at Facebook. Comments don’t appear to be working so… as I was trying to say: Facebook has demonstrated very clearly (so far) that their approach to [...]

This post is a landing page for when I attend a conference. In this case, the conference is Audience Conference. While I’m not certain who I will meet or what companies will be there — I have high expectations. 100% of the companies I work with have some kind of audience. That’s why I think [...]
