Greenfield High School Joins the 'Movember Movement'

The mustache-centered movement will raise awareness and funds in support of men's health issues during the month of November.

Greenfield High School students and staff are focusing on men’s health issues during the month of "Movember," otherwise known as Mustache November.

To build community, have fun, and raise funds for men’s cancer research and awareness outreach, the school community has decided to be part of the “Movember Movement” that started in Australia almost 10 years ago.

A number of staff members and students are going to be part of the “Mo Hawks Team” that will host some fun events during the month, culminating in a wearing of the mustaches Nov. 21.

Principal Paul Thusius has pledged to grow a moustache for 30 days to raise awareness and funds for men's health.

“This year we pay respect to the simple truth: knowledge is power - moustache is king,” Thusius said.
