This past Sunday, May 19th, several Discovery employees banded together to Make Strides Against Breast Cancer. The weather was superb, we had an excellent time and the whole event raised $90,000!
The American Cancer Society held its first annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer in the Denver Tech Center. When this opportunity popped up, we got involved right away. Though Discovery got involved on short notice, we still had nearly 25 walkers representing Discovery Outsourcing.
It was a leisurely walk through the beautiful Denver Tech Center. The path wound through commercial buildings and at one point we were walking through a park with live music! The organizers certainly covered every aspect of the event.
We were surrounded by pink shirts in every direction. The organizers also had some special events for survivors.
Having the opportunity to interact with these brave individuals really was the icing on the cake.
What a great feeling to be able to give back, but also a sobering experience as many people still battle breast cancer every day. It is never too late to get involved. If you are interested in making a donation, you can easily do so here:
