It’s not just about raising money, it’s also about educating the boys on the importance of men’s health, and we make sure our boys know why this campaign is so important every year.

Where the money goes

Funds raised in Ireland go into Movember's global men's health programmes, including prostate and testicular cancer research, and mental health and suicide prevention.

That includes Ahead of the Game, which builds mental health literacy in young men through community sport, working with players, parents and coaches. And Men in Mind, which trains mental health practitioners in the skills to better connect with men and boys who come to them for help.

Money raised by your school helps fund work like this.

Since 2003, we have built a men's health movement, funding over 1,320 projects around the world. We call it challenging the status quo – shaking up men’s health research and transforming the way health services reach and support men.
