Information Services won second place in the IT Beards initiative to fight the prostate cancer

The Information Services’ employee Denis Peychev won the second place in the IT Beards charity initiative for prevention and fight against prostate cancer and for men’s health protection.

It is the first time the Bulgarian systems integrator joins as an official partner and participant to the IT community efforts to support and prevent men's health.

IT Beards is a charity campaign focused on the high-tech companies in Bulgaria. In November, those working in the IT sector had the opportunity to join a photo contest for beards and mustaches. Anyone could vote for the participants and donate funds to the Cancer Care Foundation account.

This year's campaign reached a result of over BGN 5,000 (EUR 2,630.5) with a joint effort. This is almost twice more whan the donation collected in 2019. The money will be used for an information campaign about prostate cancer prevention in some of the major cities in Bulgaria in 2021.

We are extremely happy that we managed to contribute to implementation of a good deed and provoking a dialogue on an important health topic.

The initiative organizers paid their special thanks to the Information Services.
