Voices of Canton Raises Awareness for Prostate Cancer Through Song — And Mustaches

Group members will don a little upper-lip facial hair at their Oct. 2 performance in North Canton. The mustaches aim to raise awareness for prostate cancer.

When we heard Voices of Canton Inc. was raising money for prostate cancer research — and they were doing it with mustaches — we couldn't help but lend them a hand in getting the word out.

Even though the group's performance is the month before "Movember," the national movement to grow mustaches in November to raise awareness for men's health and prostate cancer, the group members still are donning a little facial hair for the cause.

The other great part is their upcoming performance takes place right here in North Canton.
