Soft Tech are supporting Movember this year. With a team from around the world running/walking/growing and competing, head to head (or Mo to Mo…) for the highly regarded title of “Soft Tech Mo Bro/Mo Sista 2019”.
For those who aren’t already in the “Mo”, Movember is the leading global organisation committed to changing the face of men’s health. Since 2003 Movember has funded more than 1,250 men’s health projects around the world, challenging the status quo, shaking up men’s health research and transforming the way health services reach and support men.
“The Movember movement has grown into a truly global one. We’ve made epic progress in men’s health, but every whisker of credit goes to our Mo Bros and Mo Sistas around the world. Five million since 2003” – movember.com/about/foundation
We started off with a few “umms & ahhs”, but we got a group of us together and committed for the month. This even involved a “permission slip” for our co-CEO Rowan Hick, that ended up with 27 signatures, as motivation for his significant other. [Sorry Erin…]
Two weeks in and and I can’t say we haven’t had our bumps and “itches” along the way, but I can confirm we now have some decent km’s/miles on the scoreboard, and a few of these Mo styles developing among the team.
We’ve even added our own style, aptly named the CREEPY CATERPILLAR…
Along with doing our bit, either the Movember Move or Movember Mo, we’re also hosting fund raising events at our HQ.
Week 1
We hosted an office lunch, sharing home cooked BBQ Pulled Pork Burgers with a twist of the deep south!
Week 2
Was a MOrning tea, where we got to feast on a tall pile of homemade pancakes with ice-cream, Nutella, jam, and chocolate cake!
Good thing a lot of us are feeling the motivation to Move more this month…
Follow our updates at Team Soft Tech to find out what we’ve got planned for Week 3. While you’re there, it would be great if you could help us raise funds for Movember by making a donation.
