Hey, B Corps! We're on a mission to make workplaces more supportive for those with cancer, and we need your help! Join us in our quest by signing-up to take part in our planned social media 'takeover' on Tuesday 10th September. Don't worry, you don't need to donate anything other than a little bit of your time and your LinkedIn reach! We're just asking that you dedicate a day to sharing our content with your LinkedIn Company Page audience so that we can get our key messages in front of more people. We estimate that for every 1,000 followers your Page has, you could help us reach up to 145 people we don't yet know, giving us the chance to tell them all about the impacts a cancer diagnosis has on affected employees, their colleagues, and their employers. But hurry, there's less than a week to go now. Find out more and sign-up here https://lnkd.in/e_97wBfH Can we count on you to get involved, uniting in collective action for this important cause? #BCorp #LTW2024 #WorkplaceCancer

Movember Matters 💯 As we continue our journey through Movember, let’s shine a light on some important statistics that highlight why this campaign is crucial: - 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer, making it one of the most common cancers among men. - Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in young men aged 15-34, with an average diagnosis age of just 33. - Shockingly, men are three times more likely than women to die by suicide, emphasizing the need for mental health awareness and support. At Buildsafe, we’re committed to raising awareness for these critical issues. Together, we can encourage conversations about health, promote early detection, and support those in need. Join us in making a difference this Movember! [https://loom.ly/dE3DG-I] #Movember #TeamBuildsafe #MensHealth #GrowForACause

Approximately 1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. Black women in the U.S. are about 40% more likely to die from breast cancer than White women, despite having similar rates of diagnosis. This disparity is largely due to differences in access to quality healthcare, early detection, and treatment options. At CSA, we proudly partner with Susan G. Komen for our annual Breast Cancer Walk because we believe in making a meaningful impact in the fight against breast cancer, a disease that disproportionately affects our community. As a social justice organization, we are committed to addressing health inequities and advocating for equal access to care, education, and support. This walk is more than just a fundraiser—it's a social justice movement that brings awareness to the challenges faced by those in underserved communities. This year marks our 8th year walking with Susan G. Komen, and we are dedicated to continuing the fight against breast cancer, advocating for change, and supporting those affected by this disease. Together, we walk for hope, awareness, and equity. Please consider joining our team or donating. https://lnkd.in/gheCshEt
