TORONTO, Oct 6 /CNW/ - Did you know that there's a form of cancer that will affect more than 900 Canadian men, age 15-29, this year? That's why one man has taken on an unusual challenge: spend 25 straight days at home in his underwear, live, on camera for everyone to see. And if he can get 25,000 people to 'like' him on Facebook and last the 25 days, Stanfield's, Canada's Underwear Company, will donate $25,000 to the Canadian Cancer Society for testicular cancer awareness.
Starting on October 6, Mark, aka. The Guy at Home in His Underwear, who is a testicular cancer survivor himself, will spend more than three weeks living in a loft in downtown Toronto, taking part in activities such as posing for a life drawing class, learning an instrument, taking part in a cooking show, private yoga classes and performing daily challenges voted on by the public, just to name a few. Have we mentioned he's doing all this in his underwear?
"As a testicular cancer survivor, it's important to me that young men are aware of the risks - especially because it can affect guys as young as 15," says Mark. "Hanging out at home in my underwear all day for one day sounds great, but doing it for 25 straight days is going to be a challenge. I'm hoping to bring some awareness to a worthy cause that affects men of all ages in Canada."
From hosting a blind date to the daily underwear style reveal, visitors to www.guyathome.com can expect anything. Mark has only a few moments each day of privacy and otherwise occupies his time sharing his thoughts with his web audience, getting some exercise and discussing issues of the day - all in his Stanfield's skivvies.
To live vicariously through Mark - and to help him reach his goal - Canadians are invited to visit www.guyathome.com to watch all of the action live and 'like' The Guy at Home in His Underwear Facebook page. To help even more, visitors to the site can also follow a link on the site's homepage to make a donation directly to the Canadian Cancer Society in support of testicular cancer awareness.
According to the Canadian Cancer Society, many young men may not realize that testicular cancer is the number one form of cancer they face.
"Stanfield's is proud to support Canadian men in every way we can - especially a cause that's so close to us and the people who wear our products," says Jon Stanfield, President, Stanfield's Canada.
