My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Men's health
Prostate cancer
Testicular cancer
Mental health and suicide prevention

In 2005, I embarked on my MO journey, but it wasn't until 2012 that this cause became deeply personal. 12 years ago, my world was shaken when my dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer. His battle, though not lost directly to prostate cancer, highlighted the toll treatments can take on the human spirit. In July 2012, he left us, leaving an indelible mark on my heart.

Movember, for me, isn't just a month of growing facial hair; it's a tribute to my dad's strength, a reminder of the battles fought, and a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Over the years, Movember has evolved, encompassing all aspects of men's health, not just prostate issues. It's a movement we can all rally behind, supporting our fathers, brothers, and friends in their journey towards better health.

Join me in honoring my dad's memory and supporting men's health in all its forms. Together, let's make a difference, one MO at a time.

Hey Valentine, it's Sophia from the Movember HQ team.

Just thought I’d drop by to say a big hairy thanks for flying the flag for men’s health this year, and the last 18 years! I can see you have a really personal connection – thanks for sharing and being a champion for others.

You and the OneMoGrid team are smashing your fundraising, only $50 to go to reach that target. You've got this.

United we Mo - Sophia
