2010 Irish Campaign
The Irish campaign raised €1.6 million in 2010. This money goes directly to Movember’s Irish men’s health partner; The Irish Cancer Society. At the end of the campaign the costs are reimbursed to Movember, a global, not-for-profit, charitable organisation. By working closely with our men’s health partners, Movember is able to ensure that funded programs are in line with our strategic goals.

This low cost operating model ensures that the net funds raised remain within Ireland and Movember is able to achieve a global fundraising and administration cost-to-funds raised ratio of 8%. This is low by international fundraising standards; with best practice currently being in the range of 15% - 25%.

All funds donated to our men's health partners are restricted and are only to be used for programs. Movember funds are not permitted to be used for fundraising or administration costs not related to programs.
