Movember at eology: Strong together for men’s health

What exactly is Movember?

Movember is a global charity movement dedicated to men’s health, particularly in the areas of prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health, and suicide prevention. The name is a combination of “moustache” and “November” – and that’s exactly what it’s all about:

Every year in November, men grow a moustache to raise awareness of the issue. The motto is: “Grow a Mo, save a Bro.”

But Movember is much more than just growing a beard: with the “Move” campaign, exercise and activity also become a statement for health!

How the campaign works

Taking part is easy – and even fun:

• Grow a mustache: “No Shave November” starts on November 1. Participants shave clean beforehand and then let their mo grow.
• Collect donations or donate yourself: Every mustache becomes a donation platform. You can create a profile on the official movember.com website and collect donations or simply make a contribution yourself.
• Alternatives to the mustache: With the MOVE campaign, Movember is calling on all participants to cover 60 km in November – running, walking, cycling, or however they choose.

eology gets involved – athletic and generous

Our eos employees worked hard in November 2025 – with strong Mo looks and lots of exercise:

• 🧔 Beards instead of shaving: Some eos employees bravely persevered and let their Mo sprout.
• 👟 MOVE participation: Kilometers were diligently collected – on foot, at the gym, or on bikes.
• ❤️ Joint donations: A total of €1,200 will go to the Movember Foundation to support important projects related to men’s health.

A huge thank you to all eos who took part in the campaign with their beards, movement, and enthusiasm!

Why this is important to us

Preventive medical checkups, mental stress, and depression are still associated with a great deal of silence among men. But the opposite is needed: openness, exercise, and joint action. By participating, we want to show that it’s okay to seek help, engage in conversation, and take care of your body and mind.
