Panthers fans and mustache enthusiasts across the globe are encouraged to participate in this virtual run and contribute to the cause by raising awareness on social media platforms.
"The Stache Dash is a way to bring fans together for an important cause this November " said Florida Panthers Chief Commercial Officer Shawn Thornton. "As a leader of cancer research and treatment in the community, we knew Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center would be the best partner to raise awareness and funds for men's health through this race."
"We're pleased to partner with the Florida Panthers on this event," said Stephen D. Nimer, M.D., director of Sylvester, the only National Cancer Institute-designated cancer center in South Florida. "A key factor around men's health and cancer starts with conversations around screening and early detection. As the cancer leader in the region, we want to take an active role in educating our patients and the community."
