Tri-Ed President Raising Money for Movember

Pat Comunale will grow out a mustache to raise awareness

Tri-Ed President and CEO Pat Comunale is growing a moustache—for charity. The act of growing out one’s facial hair has become commonplace in November, otherwise known as Movember, and Comunale hopes to raise awareness and funds for the Movember Foundation.

The Movember Foundation has raised $650 million since 2003, focusing on prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and physical inactivity. Tri-Ed has taken a personal pledge to support the cause in order to honor colleague and friend Bill Brown, who lost a battle with cancer in August.

"I'm very proud to take on this challenge," Comunale says. "The Movember Foundation brings leading experts together from around the world to collaborate on solutions that will fundamentally change the way men's health issues are treated and supported. I hope that by making this November my hairiest month, we can all raise funds together for a great cause and honor Bill Brown's memory in the process."
