(Editor’s Note: Tomorrow, December takes over your desk calendar…but it also marks the end of a superb run for our Toronto office. Read up at where they started way back on Nov. 1 and stay tuned for the final results of their efforts.)

TORONTO — Organic Toronto is going for the Mo! Check out the guys as they show off
their clean-shaven selves (and indeed, some of them got rid of facial hair
in order to regrow) before starting down Stubble Road on the way to full
moustache glory.

What is Movember exactly? The ‘Mo’, slang for moustache, and November come
together each year for Movember.

In 2010 tragically more than 4,400 men will die as a direct result of
prostate cancer. Each Movember we challenge men to change their appearance
and the face of men’s health by growing a moustache. The moustache is our
ribbon, the means by which we raise awareness and funds for cancers that
affect men. Much like the commitment to run or walk for charity, our
commitment is to grow a moustache for 30 days. Funds raised benefit the
Prostate Cancer Foundation and LIVESTRONG.

Believe me, for those of us with light facial hair growth, this is an
exercise in humility if not humiliation. Both Elliott and James have
photos up on their Facebook profiles (James taking a strong early lead).
