The ‘Movember’ movement to build awareness for prostate cancer and men’s health and to raise money to fight the disease has its supporters across the aftermarket, but the Bestbuy Handlebars and Team Captain Andy Murphy raised a record $36,410 for the cause.

Murphy, Vice-President of Sales & Marketing at Bestbuy Distributors, knows first-hand the importance of supporting the Movember Foundation, an organization dedicated to changing the face of men’s health.

Diagnosed with prostate cancer seven years ago, Murphy was compelled to act and support Movember’s mission.

Since 2012, Murphy and the Bestbuy Handlebars have worked to raise awareness of prostate cancer and other men’s health issues.

To date, Murphy and the Bestbuy Handlebars have raised $74,247.

The original goal for MOVEMBER 2021 was to raise $15,000, no small feat, but instead, a record-setting $36,410 was raised thanks to generous donors and industry champions in the Automotive Aftermarket.

Thankfully, Murphy celebrates seven years of remaining cancer-free and plans to continue as Team Captain of the Bestbuy Handlebars in 2022.

Anyone in the industry is welcome to join in and continue the challenge.
