September 2, 2020

The District 6 NextGen Committee is raising money this year for Movember!

Every November, a global campaign is launched which encourages people to grow moustaches to raise awareness around prostate and testicular cancer – both of which are some of the leading causes of premature death among men.

The NextGen Committee will be selling T-shirts this year for $20.00 and all proceeds will be donated to Movember to support their research into men’s health. Men’s and Women’s sizes and cuts are available, as well as T-shirt or tank-top styles. The deadline for ordering is Wednesday, September 16, 2020 so don’t delay – support this great cause and get your order form here!

NextGen is a committee committed to developing leadership, community service, and political activism among activists 35 years old or younger in District 6. They are currently in the process of revamping the NextGen program. If you would like more information about NextGen or are interested in setting up a committee, you can contact the Co-Chairs of the D6 NextGen Committee: Briana Broderick (Briana.broderick@usw2010.ca) or Jordan Rego (jordanrego@gmail.com).
