UN Women + Uber = Vision for Equality in Dallas
In 1995, world leaders followed a call by the United Nations and gathered in Beijing to produce an unprecedented plan for advancing gender equality and the empowerment of women everywhere.
Today, on the 20th anniversary of the Beijing Declaration, we are proud to share with The Uber Community that we are embarking on a new global partnership with UN Women with the goal of accelerating economic opportunity for women. As part of our commitment to this goal, Uber will create 1,000,000 jobs for women as drivers on the Uber platform by 2020.

Celebrating Black History Month
This year is the 100th anniversary of Black History Month with “A Century of Black Life, History and Culture”. With only a few more days left, the century celebration is certainly alive! There are many Black History Month events within the DFW area that are acknowledging the history, the culture, and many lives of both past and present African American influencers.
The Weekender
Discover DFW this weekend by getting out and about. There’s plenty to do in the metroplex this weekend, here are a few of our favorites.
No Car Week
On a typical weekday, most DFW locals have a similar, basic routine. Wake up, get ready, and then set out to conquer the day. Although daily tasks may vary, many of these day-to-day routines have something very basic in common – driving a car. So, what happens when that aspect of the routine is taken out of the picture?
Roses are Red, Violets are Blue

Uber is Arriving in Denton
From Fry Street to Downtown Square and everything in-between there is a lot to discover in Denton, and Uber wants to help you get there! That’s right – Uber is officially expanding to the Little D.
Ridesharing: Big changes for the Big D
It’s no secret that Texans love their cars. This is widely visible by looking at commuter behavior in Dallas where there is a strong preference towards personal car use over other forms of public transportation.There are approximately 930k cars on the road in Dallas, with the number continuously climbing with our growing population, leaving us to question whether the hassle of car expenses, congestion, and limited parking is a problem that can be remedied?
The Weekender
With rain in the forecast for the weekend, it’ll be hard not to lounge on the couch for a couple of days. But for those adventurous DFW locals that are looking for something to do, we have some things in mind!
