I'm not a fan of slacktivism and I had to decline a coworker to take part in movember because I just can take part in this, as I suspect an alarming number of other are doing, just for the fun of it.

Please if you are participating in movember don't be a slacker, raise some friggin cash for a good cause. Otherwise you're no better than those useless FB underwear color bs campaigns.

I'm growing it for general Movember awareness... and will be putting in my own donation. If during the "awareness" someone offers to donate as well, I'll pass their donation along. But I'm not going out of my way to pester anyone, from what I've seen there are enough charities that do that already, and I don't really follow the understanding of that. Giving to a cause should be out of personal reasons, and guilt shouldn't be one of them.
