Take a moment and look at our "Sponsors On A Roll" on the right of this post. Forty-four (44) named sponsor-supporters and at least 7 other anonymous donors making over 50 donations. This is heart warming considering the tough economic times and the increased 'competition' from other mo growing teams. I had a number of people tell me that they would not be sponsoring our team because they are supporting Movember at their school or office. This is all good and can be seen in the astounding donation figures raised by Canada compared to the rest of the world. At the time of writing Canada, with 244,046 registrations, is just shy of $30 million and will likely achieve that amount before the end of Movember. Australia and the U.K. are fighting it out for second place with $18.8 million and $18.5 million respectively. The total for all countries is almost $80 million.
We are all the winners as the word gets out about men's health issues and more funding becomes available for prostate cancer research.
