This collection of the top December 2014 social good ideas includes many Movember-focused campaigns and initiatives from the past month. Movember -- the name given to November as a month-long charity initiative to raise money and awareness for men's health -- always brings out the most creative, quirky and memorable campaigns.
Thanks to things like beard styling guides and hilarious feminine mustache adds, marketers were able to reach a very large group of consumers through their clever campaigning. While not everyone can grow a mustache, the brands behind some of the most successful Movember campaigns came out with exceptionally creative ways to engage people from many different groups to donate, participate and become more informed.
For others examples of the top December 2014 social good ideas, please visit Trend Hunter's 2014 Social Good Report.
