20 years ago, Movember started a men’s health movement. As a result, men are living healthier, longer lives. Men like Bob Evans.
Bob first found Movember through his prostate cancer diagnosis in 2009. He's now known as the 'Mo Bro Guy', and for good reason. Over the last 15 years he's raised just shy of $100,000 for men's health. These funds contributed to ground-breaking research that helped give Bob targeted and personalized prostate cancer treatment.
“I’m living proof that my efforts with Movember have paid off."
We’ve spent over 18 years deep in prostate cancer research and resources, bringing together the best minds in the world to tackle the biggest problems in prostate cancer.
But there’s still a long way to go. Because until prostate cancer stops impacting the lives of men like Bob and everyone around them - we’re not stopping.

Loved your video - my story is almost right in line with yours. It was my father who was diagnosed (still living with it) so I (45 at the time) thought I should get checked. My doctor said no I was too young. So I sought out the tests and paid for it all myself. Turns out my cancer was much worse than my fathers. I had it surgically removed the same year (2015) but my PSA numbers remain and I am forever linked to my doctor now. I have been raising funds for 13 years (8 since surgery) and I just cracked the $100K mark last year.

I am 45 and recently been diagnosed with Prostate cancer. Found at its earliest stage and decided to get checked because of my dad being diagnosed at the age of 75.
