The challenge has already started and continues until October 31st.

Participants must record the kilometers covered, regardless of the sporting activity.

Mind Source will be hosting a live chat with Carla Semedo, author of the blog Vencer de Salto Alto (Winning in High Heels), during Breast Cancer Awareness Month (October). Starting October 28th, around 6:30 PM, everyone can watch this conversation on Mind Source's official Instagram. Among other topics, Carla Semedo will share her perspectives on her cancer diagnosis, the importance of family, friends, and colleagues' support, and even the everyday changes after overcoming cancer.

This social responsibility initiative from the Portuguese company reinforces its commitment to the fight against cancer. Mind Source's association with the Portuguese League Against Cancer has been in place for several years and aims to raise awareness about the importance of prevention and early diagnosis in combating this disease.

This Mind Source challenge is taking place from October 15th to 31st, 2021, dates that mark Breast Health Day and National Breast Cancer Day. You can follow and participate in the initiative on Mind Source's social media – Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. Filipa Dantas, Associate Marketing & Communication Manager at Mind Source, emphasizes that “Mind Source is very proud to once again partner with the Portuguese League Against Cancer to raise awareness about this disease. We invite everyone to participate in our initiative to reach our goal of €1,500, a symbolic amount, but one that will certainly help in research and early detection of cancer. This is a cause that unfortunately affects many of us, and the little we can do is already a lot. In this case, we only ask people to walk, to run against cancer metaphorically and literally.”
