My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Mental health and suicide prevention

Globally, the rate of suicide is alarmingly high, particularly in men.

Many reasons are put forward as to why that may be, but I believe men feel alone, and often are. It is time we remembered that men have feelings too and it is our job to help to explore them!

Movember is aiming to reduce the rate of male suicide by 25% by 2030, and I want to help them get there. Help me stop men dying too young.

I've battled with depression and anxiety for a long time and watched family suffer the same. My father attempted suicide. I want people to understand that they will be alright, no matter how hard it is, no matter how shit they feel. I want them to believe in themselves and believe that they can get through anything and achieve things in their life, without feeling like their mental health issues are blocking the way, rather that they can overcome them, surmounting the seemingly insurmountable. Nobody deserves to struggle with mental health. Let's raise awareness and some money to help support those in need.

Moustaches have been shaved, leaderboards have been closed, and eternal glory has been achieved.

It is my great honour to announce the Top 5 from this year’s Mo University Challenge.

Collectively, this community of 1,353 Mo’s from 291 teams across Australia raised an incredible $285,386. Just unbelievable.

This is where change is being made. You are the people creating a better future for men’s health. So from the tips of our moustaches to the bottom of our hearts, thank you to each and every one of you for the wonderful impact you’ve made.

Keep on changing the world,
Josh from Team Movember

Some serious movement in the rankings, and even more serious funds raised, with the Mo Uni Challenge cracking $200,000 for 2023!

These funds go directly to lifesaving programs, helping men live healthier, longer lives. Every one of you has made that possible - thank you.

The leaderboards don't close until the 12th of December, so put in that final push and share those Mo Spaces far and wide! Could there be a late shift in the top 5?

Time to bring it home,

Wow oh wow. Halfway through and we are blown away by your support.

We've had 24-hour relays, 60km solos, moustache tattoos... and we're only getting started.

Uni Mo's of Australia, give yourselves a huge pat on the back and keep up the incredible work. A big couple of weeks of goodness on the way.

Inspired by you all,
Josh from Team Movember

proud of you

Hey Mo Heroes,

We hope this message finds you well and in good spirits as we mark the end of our first week of Movember. We are thrilled to announce that 101 of you have already signed up for this noble cause, and together, we've raised an impressive $7,218 to support men's health initiatives. Your dedication and enthusiasm are truly inspiring!

The journey has just begun, and the momentum is building. As you continue to grow your mustaches and participate in Movember events, remember that every dollar raised, every conversation started, and every bit of awareness spread makes a significant impact in the fight against mental health issues. Our collective effort is driving change and saving lives!

This Sunday-Monday we have our 24-hour Ring Road Run which we would love to see you all at! It goes from 12pm - 12pm and whether you're making moves or just there to cheer on your fellow Mo-Bros and Mo-Sisters, we'd love to see you there!

If you'd like to sign up - it's not too late. All the details here: https://forms.gle/QaP7rjXFGQSN4SB5A

Stay Hairy!

Uni Mo's of Australia, we are LIVE!!!

Just like that, Movember has begun. So shave down those upper lips, get those running shoes on, and start shouting about the amazing cause that is men's health.

We've got 658 of you incredible university Mo's signed up and you've already raised an incredible $33,000. And it's only the 1st of Movember?!!

So share those Mo Spaces far and wide, keep encouraging your mates to sign up, and keep on changing the face of men's health. Thank you for everything you're doing.

It's Mo time,
Josh from Team Movember

Uni Mo's - Those follicles have hit the floor, Moves have been made, events hosted and epic challenges ticked off. On behalf of Movember I'd like to pass my congratulations to you all on a Hairy Season well had.

The Mo University Challenge has raised $348,000 this year making it the most successful University fundraising year ever!

The leader boards will be closed off on the 12th of December so their is still time for you to hustle for those last min donations!

Thanks again for all your hairy efforts & happy holidays

It's Mo 22 - those Mo's will be feeling furrier, your legs fitter and your events ready to pop off! I'd love to see a couple of snaps of your Mo's posted on the Challenge page.

Boy it is close up the top of the University Challenge leader board - with QUT currently edging out the top fundraising university for the last three years UQ - with Monash following in a close third.

Regardless of the fundraising figures - keep parading that furry top lip, starting conversations and keeping your communities connected. Your are all doing such a fabulous job and all of us at Mo HQ are so grateful to be your Roadies.
