to International Men's Day
U.K. Inauguration 2008 !

On November 2008 an invitation did go out to Kent university students
to come and celebrate International Men's Day at Mungos! This event
was organized and coordinated by Canterbury's Kent University student
organization 'Raise and Give' (or RAG as we are better known). RAG is
Kent Unions charitable arm located in the Student Activities Centre
which raises thousands of pounds for charity each year! The night
started at 7pm with live soccer coverage of England v Germany on the
big screen, and afterwards the evening heated up with a mixture of
comedy and live music from student favourites, "Clacket Lane". There
was a raffle including the chance to win some of the very latest
computer games for X Box and PS3 alongside many more suprises! There
was also a guitar hero competition and an X-box tournament with the
chance to win more prizes. About 300 people attended with roughly
equal numbers of males and females. The event was a resounding success
and all participants had a memorable celebration.

All proceeds went to ORCHID a charity for all male cancers, including
prostate, penile or testicular cancer. Male attendees at International
Men's Day were invited to buy a "Know Your Balls" wrist band at Mungos
campus bar and get entry discounts at the Venue for afterwards. Orchid
plays a leading role in the fight against male cancer through research
and awareness and by supporting patients.
