More than 40 staff members at the E.M. Baker School, John F. Kennedy School, North Middle School, and North High School joined the Movember movement to raise awareness and funds for men’s health issues.

Participants pledged to grow a mustache or beard for the month of November, and together they raised a total of $1,200 for the Movember Foundation.

The Movember Foundation is a non-profit organization committed to saving and improving the lives of men around the world by supporting research and services, with a focus on prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health issues.
