Movember at Bandon High!

Movember at Bandon High!

This November, the Bandon High School campus is joining the Movember movement with a fun Students vs. Staff Mustache Challenge — all to support Men’s Health!



Funds raised will go toward important causes, including men’s mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer.



How to donate:

You can contribute online through the links provided or drop your spare change (and small bills!) into our collection buckets around campus.



Stay tuned!

We’ll be posting weekly mustache growth updates on each participant’s page — so you can follow the progress and cheer on your favorite stache!



Let’s come together to support our Bandon men and promote a healthier future for all men.
