About Movember

The Movember Foundation is an Australian based, not for profit, charitable organization that implements the Movember event each year.

The Movember event creates awareness around men's health issues and funds for carefully selected beneficiary partners in each country that are also charitable organizations, with a focus on prostate cancer.

Since its inception as a formal charity in 2004, Movember has raised over $29 million (USD) globally and is continuously working to increase awareness of prostate cancer within the community and change the attitude men have about their health.

Movember's beneficiary partner in the United States is the Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF), the world's largest philanthropic source of support for prostate cancer. Founded in 1993, the PCF has raised more than $288 million and provided funding to more than 1,400 prostate cancer researchers at 100 institutions worldwide.

The PCF has a simple, yet urgent goal: to find better treatments and a cure for prostate cancer.
