November is Moustache Month
Actually, it’s prostate cancer awareness month and Phillips is supporting research by donating fifty cents from the sale of each six pack of Blue Buck to the Vancouver Island Prostate Cancer Foundation. Special packs of Blue Back have a fake moustache inside.
Prostate cancer is the leading form of cancer afflicting Canadian men. Some 24,700 are diagnosed with it each year. Of those, 4,300 will die of the disease.
In addition to drinking Blue Buck, you can raise money for prostate cancer research by joining the Republic of Movember, growing a moustache, and taking pledges from your family and friends.
