MEMBERS of the ViClarity team based at Kerry Technology Park, took part in the Movember challenge to raise funds for men’s health projects for mental health, suicide prevention, and prostate/testicular cancer.

Throughout the month, the team grew some interesting looking moustaches and completed a ‘move goal’ of 60km, in the process raising €4,565 for the cause.

The challenge began on November 1, where most team members started out bare-faced (others needed a head start) to see how impressive their moustache would be by day 30.

From day 1, the competition was fierce in the ViClarity office, comparing their growth and keeping a watchful eye on the leaderboard, to see who was raising the most funds.

This competition between team members helped to drive success in the volume of donations that were received.

The ViClarity team raised a combined total of €4,565 over the 30 days, which was donated to www.Movember.ie and distributed across all listed charities.

Movember is the leading charity changing the face of men’s health. Since 2003, Movember has funded more than 1250 men’s health projects around the world, challenging the status quo, shaking up men’s health research and transforming the way health services reach and support men.
