In honor of men's health and facial hair everywhere, Tier10 Marketing and its employees are participating
in Movember to raise awareness and fund for prostate cancer, testicular cancer and other men’s cancer
initiatives. Employees provided a donation, which will go toward the Movember charity. Tier10 will then
match the total monies raised by its employees. Tier10 will also continue to raise additional funds from
outside the company through its Movember team page.
Those interested in donating to Tier10 Marketing’s Movember efforts can do so by clicking here.
But Movember wouldn’t be Movember without some ‘stache-ction. Therefore, the donation doubled as an
entry free for participating male employees (i.e. Mos), who showed up on Nov. 1 with a completely
shaved face. All Mos – including males and females who donated over $20 – also received an honorary
Movember t-shirt designed by Tier10 graphic designer Jason Tropp, who championed the cause to the
company.
2. Tier 10’s Movember rules differ slightly from the official Movember rules, which call for keeping only a
mustache throughout November. Tier10’s Mos showed up on Nov. 1 with a completely shaved face. From
there, Mos are required to refrain from shaving for the month and grow a full beard. (However, to keep
from looking terribly disheveled, Mos will be allowed to shave their necks, as no one wants to see Neck
Beard November.) Then, on Nov. 26, Mos will shave the beard, keeping and maintaining only a mustache
until the end of the month.
To show solidarity with the ‘stache-sporting gentlemen, the ladies of the of the office will also get in on the
week of ‘Stache Madness by donning mustaches of their own from Nov. 26 through the end of the month.
Fake ones, of course.
Tier 10 will be documenting its journey to a ‘stache-growing office by taking pictures of Mos each day.
Tier10 will also create a time-lapse at the end of the month, which will be posted on Tier10lab.
