Thanks to the generosity of our ZERO community, we had a

100 more men this month with support and resources throughout their
prostate cancer journey.

It's not too late to help support more prostate cancer patients in
need. Be a part of the hope this holiday season by making your
end-of-year-giving donation. Our match campaign extends through
December 31!

Advocacy Update: Cures Act Passes the Senate

Yesterday, the Senate passed the 21st Century Cures Act by a vote of
94-5. This bill focuses on accelerating the review process for new
drugs with the FDA as well as increasing funding for efforts like
Cancer Moonshot and President Obama's Precision Medicine Initiative. A
portion of the bill allocates $1.8B over seven years to fighting
cancer through the Cancer Moonshot. This is promising for the prostate
cancer community as it could mean additional funding for potentially
life-saving treatments. 

Sign up for our Advocacy alerts to be the first to know about these
updates.

We were stoked to see many of you get together to celebrate a
successful month of Grow & Give, showcasing your fantastical fuzz
and fundraising efforts. This year's fundraisers were some of the
most creative yet! From shave events to homemade for-sale Irish Creme,
we were psyched to see the awesome ways our mustachioed men (and
maidens!) were raising funds for the cause.

Baseball Great Ken Griffey Sr. Rounded out the Run/Walk Season in San
Francisco

Baseball legend Ken Griffey Sr. joined ZERO to raise awareness of
prostate cancer during a Run/Walk event in San Francisco on Saturday,
November 12. A prostate cancer survivor who lost four uncles to the
disease, Ken Sr. helped kick off the Run/Walk near Lake Merced with
his powerful personal story and encouraged men to be vocal about
advanced prostate cancer symptoms, such as fatigue or difficulty
performing normal activities. The Run/Walk, held in partnership with
Golden Gate Urology, had a successful turnout with more than 500
participants supporting the fight against prostate cancer.

Ken Sr. also interacted with attendees and shared his goal as a
spokesman for Bayer's Men Who Speak Up program: to encourage men
to take action against advanced prostate cancer and related
symptoms. 

"When it comes to maintaining your prostate health, speaking up
is vital," said Ken Sr. "Hearing so many prostate cancer
stories in San Francisco and being able to share mine was a wonderful
experience. I'm proud to encourage more men to take
action."
