BMT employees celebrated being part of the BMT Men’s Health Team by wearing a team jersey to increase awareness of men’s health issues, to promote preventative health services, and to encourage a healthy lifestyle. Employees grew beards throughout the month as an additional show of support. Further, BMT has committed to making a $5,000 donation to the Movember Foundation, whose action plan is “Connecting clinicians and researchers from around the world to accelerate health outcomes for men living with prostate and testicular cancer.”

“The BMT No Shave November campaign, and more broadly our Men’s and Women’s Health Initiative, has been well received by our employees and our customers,” said BMT CEO Frank Leto. “It has generated a sense of camaraderie and it has made it easier for people to talk about men’s and women’s health, which can be a difficult topic.” Almost 100 BMT employees committed to growing a beard in November. Employees posed for a group photo that appeared on BMT social media sites.

BMT held their first No Shave November campaign in 2015 as part of their Men’s and Women’s Health Initiative.
