We are thrilled to share the inspiring story of Sam and Dylan’s remarkable cycling adventure in support of mental health. Last week, Sam Brown and Dylan Thomas took on the challenge of cycling from our London office to our Paris office. Braving challenging weather conditions, including relentless rain and fierce winds, they completed this extraordinary journey in just two days! Thanks to the tremendous support and generosity from other employees, Sam and Dylan raised £1,745 to support the Mental Health Foundation exceeding their initial fundraising goal of £1,000. After their journey, they had the chance to recover and spend time with our colleagues in the Paris office and enjoy some well-deserved local cheese and baguettes. A huge thank you to everyone who donated and supported them along the way, helping to make a difference for mental health! #FitchGroup #CyclingChallenge #LondonToParis #MentalHealthSupport

Last Friday, 9/27 for NYC Climate Week by Climate Group we hosted a jam-packed session specifically on Scope 3 solutions featuring HearstLab sustainability superstars Julia Collins & Lizzy Kolar 🌎 🌱✨ First up: Greenhouse Gas 101. Bottom line? “Scope 3 emissions is where the chaos happens, because this is all the emissions throughout your value chain.” So…what to do about it? Lexie Sachs (Good Housekeeping) dug in with Julia and Anna Turrell (Decathlon ) on the exciting opportunities and major complexities of how retail & CPG companies are moving the needle with their climate goals. Top takeaways: ⛓️💥 Everyone (companies, suppliers, consumers) needs data to make decisions…but, it must be reasonable, trackable, and consistent in order to realistically make systemic improvements. Enter: Planet FWD. ❗While food & bev is slightly ahead of the game due to consumer demand (people care about the ingredients they’re putting in their body!), it doesn't matter where/what industry you’re in…regulation is coming. 💰 Data must be coupled with education, up-skilling, and incentives (including how jobs are positioned and measured…think “Chief Value Officer” vs. “Chief Financial Officer”) ♻️ There is a huge interconnectivity of issues. Win-wins can take us further (e.g. eliminating deforestation also reduces emissions footprint). 📉 Ultimately: “The name of the game now is emissions reduction. This is why the work of engaging the supply chain is so important.” Next we heard from 3 next-gen employee benefit models working to enable sustainable decision making at enterprise scale. 1️⃣ Scope Zero is reimagining HSAs with a lens of financial & emissions reductions incentives.

𝗣𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 – 𝙈𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙖 𝙒𝙖𝙡𝙨𝙝 During our Hispanic Heritage Month celebrations, we thought it would be educational to hear from our Hearst colleagues about their lived experience in Hispanic culture. Our first interviewee is Maria Walsh. Maria is the Senior Vice President of Global Benefits and works at Hearst Tower in New York. 𝟭. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 / 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱? How do you identify within the Hispanic or Latin culture? I identify as Hispanic or Latina and specifically as Cuban American. I was born in Cuba and immigrated to the U.S. at the age of six. Spanish is my first language, and I speak it very often. My family settled in northern New Jersey, and I’ve lived here ever since. 𝟮. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲? So much! I love all the things that make up the “essence” of Hispanic culture – the history, the language and dialects, the music, and, especially, the food! 𝟯. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝗶𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲? One of the beautiful things about Hispanic culture in a place like the U.S. is that we are all a part of a huge and diverse community. I may be Cuban American, but I’m also part of this larger Hispanic community made up of people from different countries with their own history, cultural practices, foods, music and more. It’s a diverse diaspora but with some important, common experiences that bind us together. I love being a part of it, and I especially love being able to share my culture with my husband and two daughters.  𝙏𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙠 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙥𝙚𝙚𝙧 𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙪𝙨, 𝙈𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙖.
