(1888PressRelease) February 02, 2012 - Mustaches aren't just stylish ways to keep your upper lip warm any more: Sundream Holidays Ottawa employees are using facial hair to fight prostate cancer. "People comment on it all the time when you're out and about," said Jim Lotoski, one of the lead organizers of the movement around the Sundream Holidays Ottawa office. "When it gets really gross about day 15, it opens up the door to say, 'Hey, I have this for a reason.' And you can explain why."

Even the ladies of Sundream Holidays Ottawa are showing their support and rallying for the cause, drawing mustaches directly onto their upper lips with black felt pens.

The philanthropic mustache wearers generate donations through the pledges of their friends and family members while also being walking, talking advertisements for the Movember movement. It's sort of like wearing a pink breast cancer bracelet, but a little more bristly and a lot more visible.

This tongue-in-cheek charity put on by Sundream Holidays Ottawa is only a fragment of the global Movember movement. Started in Melbourne, Australia in 1999, the movement has raised over $100 million - $22 million in 2011 alone. Sundream Holidays Ottawa employees are enthusiastic about taking part in this lighthearted take on a very serious disease, as prostate cancer is diagnosed in one in seven Canadian men.

Sundream Holidays Ottawa, a travel club now in its seventh year of service, is not your average travel service provider. Sundream Holidays Ottawa presents a fresh take on the entire industry: unlike virtually every competitor, Sundream Holidays Ottawa does not outsource its sales personnel to a commission-driven third party. While other organizations are putting on the hard sell to guilt and pressure potential customers into purchasing, Sundream Holidays Ottawa knows that treating customers with an old-fashioned sense of respect is the best way to build confidence in any relationship. Any appeal from Sundream Holidays Ottawa comes straight from Sundream Holidays Ottawa itself - a company where the operators and service people are not paid based on how many sales they make. Sundream Holidays Ottawa has the best interest of its potential customers at heart.

The personal connection Sundream Holidays tries its best to foster shines through in every aspect of the company. Calling Sundream Holidays Ottawa's toll-free number even connects one to a live representative - a communication commodity that has unfortunately been neglected by the understaffed and overzealous corporations of today.

Sundream Holidays Ottawa is largely regarded as the best travel club in the Maritimes. Sundream Holidays Ottawa is popular for its travel rewards programs that grant members discounts on vacations and online merchandise which is available it its web site. Sundream Holidays Ottawa has office locations at Burlington, Ontario; Truro, Nova Scotia; Windsor, Ontario and Dartmouth, Nova Scotia and recently opened two new locations in Kitchener-Waterloo and Ottawa.
