Jim’s Mowing customers may notice their gardeners are looking a little hairier this November.

That’s because Jim’s Mowing band of more than 1500 mostly male franchisors and franchisees across Australia will be supporting the men’s health initiative – Movember.

Greg Puzzolo, divisional manager – mowing, said “We are very excited to announce that we are a corporate partner of Movember for 2012.

“Movember raises vital funds and awareness for men’s heathl, specifically prostate cancer, depression and anxiety,” he said.

Last year, Jim’s Mowing raised $12,000 in the group’s first attempt at a collective fundraising initiative for Movember.

“This year, we want to raise more than $40,000 and we believe we can do this as the majority of franchisees are pledging just $20 and franchisors $50 to kick-start the campaign,” Greg said.

Jim’s Mowing customers can also pledge money through their Jim’s franchisee.
