Movember

November 1 - November 30, 2025

Movember on its own has become an incredible movement. Associated with men growing out their moustaches in support of men's health including awareness for prostate cancer, testicular cancer, as well as men's suicide.

For multiple years Harry's Razers had partnered up with Movember. Specifically, in 2016, Harry's donated $1 from every Truman Shave Set and Truman Razor Handle up to $50,000 to support men's health programs and research.

Black Friday / Cyber Monday Weekend

November 28 - December 1, 2025

The busiest time of year for retail is the Black Friday Cyber Monday weekend. Every business will be looking for the latest Black Friday ideas to retain customers - the traditional approach was to massively discount items more and more stores are choosing to give back and donate.

While Give Back Friday is a more general approach to supporting a charity over the weekend, there are more and more options available like Blue Friday and Green Friday (see below).

Charities and Causes to support on Black Friday:

• Woman's Aid - donations help provide life-saving services to women and children across the UK

• Support Dogs - Provide, Train, and support specialist assistance dogs to increase independence and quality of life for people with various medical conditions

• World Bicycle Relief - support goes towards creating and providing bicycles to those living in remote communities

Green Friday

November 28, 2025

With the heavy environmental footprint associated with Traditional Black Friday, Green Friday has come out as a sustainable alternative. For this day brands will choose to donate and support a sustainable initiative instead of offering massive discounts.

Brands like AYM have run successful Green Friday campaigns. With the 10 for 10 initiative, they offered their customers a 10% discount on all items while ensuring that 10% of sales were donated to the World Land Trust Save an acre programme.

Charities and Causes to support:

• World Land Trust - funded partner organisations around the world to create reserves and give permanent protection to habitats

• Carbon Offsetting Initiatives - planting trees to offset carbon emissions

• Woodland Trust - help us plant trees, protect woods and inspire people
