First there was Movember, an annual event starting in the early 2000s involving the growing of moustaches during the month of November to raise awareness of men's health issues, including prostate cancer and more recently depression and suicide among men.
However, this year a new event has begun to sweep the nation ... #MulletMarch, where individuals grow mullets during the month of March to help raise awareness of and funds for mental health issues.
"The idea for March Mullet was born in the city of Barrie, Ontario over what started as a casual conversation. It was inspired by the idea that like Mental Health, the Mullet too faces the stigma of being society’s great outcast ... Every cent raised is donated to the Canadian Mental Health Association, Simcoe County Branch" (http://www.starttalking.ca/march-mullet).
