👨🏻 Movember UpdateFor over a century, UCD Boat Club has been more than just a rowing club, it’s been a place where men support one another through victories, losses, and everything in between. Generations of athletes have found strength, friendship, and resilience here, the very values that Movember stands for.This month, we’re continuing that legacy by raising funds and awareness for men’s health. Our goal is €3,000, and we’ve already had our first donations come in. A massive thank you to everyone who’s contributed so far!Our first Movember progress post will be going up soon, so keep an eye out for updates (and a few questionable moustaches) as we keep fundraising throughout the month.💰 Link in bio to donate.#Movember #UCD #UCDBC #UCDSport #MensHealth #Rowing #CollegeAthlete #RowingLife #Charity #AdAstra #HonCollege

👨🏻 In aid of Movember this year UCD Boat Club is running a campaign to raise money to help “change the face of men’s health”. Members are growing out Moustaches all month long for the cause and will be posting progress reports weekly. Sea swims, Ergathons and forfeits are all to follow when we hit our targets. The goal this year is to raise €3,000 for this great cause. We encourage anyone who sees this post to share it with friends and family to help us reach our targets. In our bio, we have links to donate to the Movember fund with 100% of proceeds going to this cause and an additional link to donate directly to the men’s Boat club to fundraise for our annual Seville trip to bring down the costs for athletes. #Movember #UCD #UCDSPORT #ROWING #UCDBC #CHARITY #collegeathlete #rowinglife
