MOVEMBER By Angelic Salha
Unfortunately, cancer has become part of our lives, people all around the world are trying to raise awareness, find a cure and make their voice heard to the world. A lot of organizations have worked so hard for this issue by spreading the word around and raising money to help cancer foundations find a cure for cancer patients through their campaigns and one of those campaigns is the Movember Campaign that started back in 2003 in Australia. Each year during the month of November men across the world grow their moustaches to raise funds and awareness for men’s health issues. Each year during the entire month of November you find people across the globe walking, talking and promoting this important matter. This amazing campaign has inspired Jeddahwis to raise their own campaign locally and try to alert people regarding the unknown threat, which is the prostate cancer that is neglected because most men are embarrassed to talk about it. This campaign is a new way for approaching this important issue and giving people the chance to understand its danger and help with the matter. This campaign is called “The Moshaneb Campaign” created by Libra Productions and Infra Red Studios. Their aim is to encourage our society through entertainment to get involved and try to do something for this matter.
These campaigns should be an inspiration to all of us; all we have to do is spread the word Twitter: #moshaneb Web: http://us.movember.com DESTINATION JEDDAH 91
