🚨 This Movember, I’m raising awareness and funds for men’s health. 🚨 Every hour, 60 men around the world are lost to suicide. It’s a shocking statistic that highlights the urgent need for better mental health support. Alongside this, Movember also drives critical research into prostate cancer, a disease that affects 1 in 8 men in their lifetime. This year, I’ve committed to running 60km throughout November and growing a Mo, each kilometer a reminder of the lives we lose every hour. Every donation, no matter the size, goes directly towards programs and research aimed at changing these numbers. Please join me in making a real difference – whether by donating, spreading the word, or simply checking in on the men in your life. Together, we can help fund research, provide support, and ultimately save lives. 💙 #Movember #MensHealth #MentalHealth #ProstateCancer #MakeADifference #Movember2024

1 in 700 children are born with a cleft lip and palate. May 4th-12th is Cleft Lip and Palate Awareness Week and we are joining with @clapacommunity based out of the UK to share our story. Face the Future Foundation Board member Rena Rosen was born with a Cleft Lip and Palate and shares an excerpt of what she spoke about at our Glitter and Gold event back in November. She says, “When children or young adults are looked at and identified by textbook examples of Craniofacial anomalies needing to be fixed, we miss out on the full human being. Each person enters into medical spaces with their own story, their own experiences, and their own trauma. It is our job as at Face the Future Foundation to staunchly support CFC so that they can do their incredible work of creating that safe space where each individual feels respected, included in every step of discussion and feels as their unique experiences are valid.” Every face tells a story, what’s yours?

I just had the unfortunate opportunity to watch Donate Life America latest video—a piece so appallingly tone-deaf that it left me feeling truly repulsed. Seeing it for the first time, I’m struck by how anyone could think this was the right way to promote organ donation. It doesn’t inspire hope or compassion. It alienates. It disgusts. This is among the worst examples of “awareness” propaganda I’ve ever seen. The leadership at Donate Life America—G. David Fleming, Alexandra Glazier Jennifer Milton George Herrera, Ronda Horstman, and others—should seriously question their judgment. This video reflects a staggering lack of empathy for patients, donors, and families, and a profound misunderstanding of real advocacy. Instead of honoring the life-saving power of organ donation, this video makes a mockery of it, leaving viewers feeling disconnected and disheartened. It’s shocking that these leaders, tasked with representing such a crucial cause, would approve a campaign this careless and offensive. This isn’t just an oversight; it’s a grotesque failure of judgment. They should feel deep shame, not pride, for this crude attempt at awareness that serves only to embarrass and alienate the very community they claim to support. If Donate Life America truly understood their mission, they’d focus on respectful ways to engage the public—ways that honor the journeys of donors, patients, and families. Publicly calling this out is necessary to prevent another massive misstep. What they’ve produced here doesn’t just miss the mark; it’s a black stain on their reputation, showing a disturbing detachment from the cause they’re supposed to champion. 💔 How This Alienates Patients and Recipients:    •   Tone-deaf portrayal    •   Absurd stereotypes    •   Insulting narrative    •   Mockery of experiences    •   Disconnection from reality 💔 How It Damages Public Perception:    •   Turns off potential donors    •   Discourages families    •   Reinforces harmful myths    •   Shows lack of empathy    •   Undermines trust 💔 How It Shows Leadership’s Failure:    •   Neglect of community    •   Outdated tactics    •   Detached priorities    •   Careless approval    •   No accountability Donate Life America, if this is the best you can offer, it’s time to step back and reassess. Real awareness demands integrity, respect, and understanding—not the cheap shock value of a poorly conceived video campaign.
