This month is Movember, an entire month dedicated to bringing awareness to men’s health. Men can show support by ditching the razor and leaving their facial hair untamed. Mayday Brewery’s annual Pajama Jam party will benefit the cause, while also celebrating Mayday founder Ozzy Nelson’s birthday.
The Movember Foundation has raised over $800 million to help fund men’s health projects worldwide. The foundation specializes in educating the general public on severe health problems that put men’s lives at risk. A big effort is also placed on suicide prevention and good mental health practices. The organization is diligently working towards reducing premature deaths by 25 percent before the year 2030.
Friday, Nov. 30, marks Mayday Brewery’s sixth anniversary. The brewery holds a special role in the community, and their events always present a great chance to connect and enjoy great times, music and good brews. This year, Pajama Jam offers everyone a chance to jump on karaoke, and Mayday will collect donations at the event on behalf of the Movember Foundation.
The money is put towards research and supports upwards of 1,200 various men’s health projects. Movember has a diverse interest in supporting all of the chronic threats to men’s health, which include testicular and prostate cancer.
Bring out your best pajamas, and bring on the mustaches! Mayday Brewery’s Pajama Jam will begin at 7 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 30; pajamas and mustaches are encouraged, but not required! For more information, stay tuned to the Mayday Brewery Facebook page, or visit maydaybrewery.com.
