Phi Kappa Theta held its annual Movember Stache Bracket in November to spread awareness of men's health. Over the years, members have participated in Movember to support their mission of helping men live happier, healthier, longer lives. They strive to tackle mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer. Movember has funded more than 1,250 men’s health projects around the world.
Our successful campaign took place on Instagram and created a platform for Phi Kap brothers to support each other through voting for the bro with the best stache.
Six total entries were selected for participation in the bracket. Our followers voted 63 times for the brother with the best stache. The three brothers below received the highest number of votes from our followers.
2022 Movember Stache Bracket winners:
· 1st Place: John Schroll (University of Nebraska - Lincoln, '24)
· 2nd Place: Kyran Peters (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, '24)
· 3rd Place: Travis Barnhardt (University of Wisconsin - Madison, '23)
When asked what Movember participation meant to him, John Schroll said he was “Happy to be able to participate and help bring attention to the importance of men's health.”
Kyran Peters also says, “Participating in Movember means spreading awareness for prostate cancer research and men's mental health.”
We are proud to highlight some of our chapters that also participated in Movember with their own campaigns to help spread awareness and raise donations. Scroll through the images below to see how our chapters supported Movember in 2022.
