As an update on Manheim locations participating in Movember events, Manheim’s parent company, Cox Enterprises, reported this week that it has donated more than $1.7 million to the Movember Foundation to support men’s health programs.

The Cox Movember Network, consisting of over 1,600 employees, vendors, partners and friends, raised $885,000 that was matched by the James M. Cox Foundation, making Cox Enterprises Movember’s Top Global Network and the largest global corporate contributor to Movember’s 2014 campaign.

“Our chairman Jim Kennedy was diagnosed with prostate cancer earlier this year,” said John Dyer, Cox Enterprises’ president. “While Jim’s prognosis is good, it brings to light the need for education and funds to support men’s health. Jim and his family have always demonstrated immense passion for Cox and its employees and it’s in the same spirit that we launched Movember at Cox.”

Jamie Kennedy, Jim’s son, started the company’s involvement, surpassing the initial fundraising goal of $250,000 during the first few days of the campaign. Employees and company partners rallied behind the cause, growing mustaches and spreading the word about men’s health issues.

“If we can prevent just one person from having to go through what I have experienced, through awareness or medical treatment, I knew the Movember campaign would be worth it,” said Jim Kennedy. “I have never seen a better example of the uniqueness of the Cox corporate culture than the way everyone rallied around the Movember campaign. I have been deeply touched by their outpouring of encouragement and support.”
