Kindness!!!

Yvonne from Grenada Village

A kind young man paid for my bus ticket this afternoon at Luxford Street at Berhampore Shops, Bus station no 1 because I had not enough money on my snapper card. I was so surprised about his generosity. That's never happened to me before. Thank you so much. It's very much appreciated.

Hi there

I am making an effort to raise funds for the Movember foundation you can donate here mobro.co....

I have shaved off my 5 year old beard and discovered my lower face can actually get quite cold.

Joking aside, I know a few people who have suffered from poor mental health, prostate cancer and testicular cancer. I am trying to raise funds to help make a change for people in these situations and make people more aware of their own health - especially the "she will be right" typical kiwi male who often avoids going to the doctor at all cost.

I would really appreciate your donations through the link above.

If you can't afford to donate, that's OK I understand. Times can be pretty tough for some people at the moment. There is other ways you can help though.

Start your own #Movemeber campaign through this link nz.movember.com... or share my "mospace" with your friends and family, maybe even your colleagues.

Thanks for your donations and don't forget to check the link to follow my mustache growth expedition!
