Underwear brand SAXX is raising funds and awareness for men’s health by launching its limited edition Stache collection. The company is donating $2 from each sale from the collection, which is currently available, to the Movember Foundation to help continue the funding of critical men’s health research.

The company is also launching a campaign to foster awareness about men’s health issues. With the support of cancer survivors Ron Telpner and Gianmarco Colannino along with mental health advocate Shea Emry of the Saskatchewan Roughriders, SAXX is telling their inspiring personal stories to encourage men and women to sign up and donate at Movember.com.

“We’re proud to be an official Mo partner this year as we continue to raise funds to support the important work Movember does in helping men live happier, healthier, longer lives,” said SAXX Underwear CEO Tim Bartels in a statement.

Since 2003, the Movember Foundation has established itself as one of the largest non-governmental investors in men’s health and has raised $676 million and helped fund 1,000 breakthrough men’s health projects. Among the other fashion-oriented companies partnering with Movember are Adidas, Tom’s, Harry’s, and Barbasol.
