Presentations also included information about the disease, personal stories about how cancer has affected the lives of team members and their loved ones, and guidelines about when and how often screening for various cancers is recommended.\n\nOur \u201cDEI Shorts\u201d presentations have become a super popular way to share information and stories, and really help to humanize these initiatives among our team members.\n\nThe team leveraged our ongoing encouragement for people to get more active with some fundraising, and we used the Outwalk app for a step challenge to also raise money. Our collective goal was 10 million steps, and across countries (and continents) we did it!\n\nOur final total was 10,345,842 steps from participating employees. We walked and ran over 7883 kilometres. How far is that? That\u2019s enough to walk to all of our offices in Munich, Odense, Copenhagen, Prague, and Lisbon, and still have over 1000 km left over. Go team!\n\nUsercentrics raised enough money to donate 1000\u20ac, which we distributed among three organizations: European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC), International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), and Childhood Cancer International (CCI).\n\nUsercentrics CEO Donna Dror, who also chairs the internal DEI team, expressed her enthusiasm for the month\u2019s events. <i>\u201cCancer touches nearly everyone\u2019s life, so we greatly appreciate team members sharing their stories, and the company-wide enthusiasm for learning and working to make a difference. We are thrilled at the level of participation in October, and being able to make multiple donations is a concrete way of living our values, including #Lead By Example and #Give Back.\u201d<\/i>\n\nEarlier this year, the Usercentrics team has learned about and held activities related to a number of groups, histories, and causes. These include Indigenous Peoples, Gender Equality, and currently, in November, Asian Heritage. We find it especially meaningful that our own team members who have these identities and backgrounds drive so many of the activities each month.\n\n&nbsp;\n\n\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7195,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"editor_notices":[]},"tags":[],"press_category":[],"class_list":["post-1025","press_release","type-press_release","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<title>Usercentrics Team Raises Funds For Cancer Research<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"For Cancer Awareness Month, the Usercentrics team got educated about cancer and health, walked and ran over 7800km, and donated 1000EUR to cancer charities.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Usercentrics Team Raises Funds For Cancer Research\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"For Cancer Awareness Month, the Usercentrics team got educated about cancer and health, walked and ran over 7800km, and donated 1000EUR to cancer charities.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/usercentrics.com\/us\/press\/usercentrics-team-raises-funds-for-cancer-research\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Usercentrics -
