Mustaches With A Lasting Impact
Truebeck held the Fourth Annual Movember Awards to honor the most manly and magnificent mustaches on our team. The night was a culmination of a month long fundraiser for The Movember Foundation, with over 40 Truebeck employees and clients growing mustaches in support of men’s health.
Together, we raised $32,281 – breaking the Top 25 national leaderboard, coming in as one of the Top 40 teams worldwide; and #1 in both the U.S. Construction and Bay Area Challenges!
To support the men who participated in this movement and to help the cause, Truebeck matched the raised funds 1:1, totaling $16,000. The money goes to funding three of the biggest health issues faced by men: prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health/suicide prevention. Let us all remember why we partake in this month of funny facial hair – to help fund groundbreaking programs all over the world for men’s health.
We had over 70 attendees celebrating the incredible success of our fundraising campaign, and vying for a coveted mustache award. Congratulations to this year’s winners! Our team’s efforts also caught the attention of The Movember Foundation, who sent along their regional Development Manager, Robert Huffman, to speak at our event.
This is a tremendous accomplishment and we couldn’t have done it without all of the generous support. Thank you to all who contributed and participated.
Remember to continue the conversations about men’s health. We hope to see everyone back next year!
