Currents of Courage Partners with Movember for National Awareness Campaign
Currents of Courage has secured a national awareness partnership with Movember, the world's leading men's health organization. For more than two decades, Movember has worked to change the face of men's health by funding breakthrough research and programs focused on prostate cancer, testicular cancer, men's mental health, and suicide prevention, while engaging millions of supporters around the world. As part of the partnership, Movember will promote the film during Prostate Cancer Awareness Month in September, helping bring the stories of the film's seven participants to millions of people and spark conversations about cancer, survivorship, and the importance of men talking openly about their health and seeking support.
"Stories reach people in a way statistics never will. Seven men found the courage to open up about cancer and everything that comes with it, and that kind of honesty gives other men permission to do the same. I'm genuinely excited for people to see this film, and even more excited about the conversations it's going to start."
— Tony Chausse, Movember
