MOvember a HUGE success

Jason Hallett, a CRI grad student, helped to organize a Movember competition (moustache growing competition in November) to help raise awareness and funds for Prostate Cancer Canada. Team BioMOgnification (lots of Biology Dept and CRI members were involved) raised a total of $3,237.25 (!!!) for Prostate Cancer Canada.

- $267.25 from the votes for the Best Mo and Faux Mo competition

- $220 for the original entrance fees and donations specifically from the competition

- The remaining money raised was collected through online donations made to individual competitors

Prize Winners

Best Mo (moustache) - Matt Marleau

Best Faux Mo - Katrina Chu

Most online donations as of the 12:01 AM Dec. 1 cut off time - Aaron Fraser

Jason would like to extend special thanks to David Armanini, Katrina Chu, and Heather McCracken for their help in organising the event, as well as the biology department, participants, and donors that made the competition such a fund raising success.
