Why do we do this? Well mostly because it’s a great cause. But also because we genuinely share Movember’s values. Connecting people is what we’re all about. The Contiki community is more important to us than the glitzy destinations and epic experiences. It’s even more important than the food (and that’s saying something).

And in a world where males account for 69% of suicides, connections and communities matter. Put simply, guys just don’t like to share. It starts from a young age (A study of 2,000 children and adolescents found that males were more likely to find discussing their problems with other males as “weird,”). And things only get worse when men graduate and emerge into an increasingly uncertain world.
