Bella Remirez was named the winner of the $10,000 Credello College Scholarship. The contest, which ran from November through July 15, 2022, asked participants to create an original video between 60 and 180 seconds exploring the themes of financial knowledge at a young age, taking control of finances, family money lessons, and the best and worst financial advice they have received from family and friends. Not only did Remirez, the first person in her family to attend a four-year college, succeed, but she challenged viewers to look at financial privilege and the importance of having honest money talks with family. Out of 54 qualifying entries, Remirez was chosen as the winner. Watch her winning entry here. Schools including the University of Pennsylvania, Iowa State University, and the University of Connecticut all featured the Credello scholarship on their websites as a resource for students.  

The cost of attending college for four years—including tuition, fees, and room and board—has skyrocketed since 1980. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, between 1980 and 2020, the price increased from $10,231 to $28,775 coming out to a 180% increase. As of 2020, 56% of college students say they can no longer afford their tuition, according to a survey by OneClass of more than 10,000 current freshmen, sophomores, and juniors from 200-plus colleges and universities in the U.S. Credello launched this scholarship program to help college students secure their financial future.

In the meantime, we know it's not only students that need help with their financial future. Credello offers many tools and resources to offer you unbiased recommendations for paying off your debt. Follow Credello on social for more scholarship opportunities for 2023.

SOMERSET, Mass. - August 18, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Today, Solar Cannabis Co. (Solar) announced its "Team Green" runners participating in the 50th Falmouth Road Race raised a $13,500 donation to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (Dana-Farber), a world leader in adult and pediatric cancer treatment and research. 

In support of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, employees of Solar created "Team Green," who will be participating in the 50th running of the historical Falmouth Road Race on Aug. 21, 2022. Team Green, which comprises 11 runners, banded together to create a first-of-its-kind, cannabis-industry race team and successfully helped raise a $13,500 donation to aid in Dana-Farber's mission to defy cancer. Dana-Farber is renowned as one of the leading cancer treatment and research institutions in the Northeast and provides adults and children battling cancer the very best treatment available today while developing tomorrow's cures through cutting-edge research. 

"We are so humbled and couldn't be more grateful for the funds raised by Team Green runners and the donations we received from a mix of amazing friends, family, and partners," said Derek Gould, Director of Marketing and Communications at Solar Cannabis Co.  

Solar's employees conceptualized Team Green to not only generate funds and awareness for Dana-Farber's mission, but also raise awareness of cannabis' positive role in mitigating - or even removing - cancerous symptoms and side effects of various cancer treatments. All of Team Green's fundraising will be donated to Dana-Farber's "Unrestricted Funds" program for their patients. These funds cover any procedures or treatments or treatment aids that are not covered by traditional insurance and make a daily difference in the care, comfort, and life of each and every patient.

"There are so many people that have been directly impacted by cancer in one way or another," said Gould. "To be able to deliver this donation to Dana-Farber and support their mission to defy cancer is truly a remarkable feat that we couldn't have done alone." 

In addition to the funds raised by Team Green runners, other support and donations included Solar Cannabis Co., Hub International, BayCoast Bank, Advance Manufacturing Co., Corporate Image Apparel, The American Legion, Last Prisoner Project, MassEON, and The South Coast LGBTQ+ Network. Following the 50th running of the Falmouth Road Race, Solar will be hosting a finish line after-party at the Falmouth Raw Bar, which will feature food, beverages, and more.

Ten Athletes Named to First-Ever USA Blind Soccer Men’s National Team

Ten Athletes Named to First-Ever USA Blind Soccer Men’s National Team

The roster includes eight athletes with visual impairments and two sighted goalkeepers.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - November 3, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

The U.S. Association of Blind Athletes (USABA) today announced the 10 athletes chosen for the first-ever USA Blind Soccer Men's National Team that will begin international competition in 2023, the first step on the journey to competing at the Los Angeles 2028 Paralympic Games. The team was selected after a four-day selection camp held Oct. 27-30 in Chula Vista, Calif. The roster features eight athletes with visual impairments along with two sighted goalkeepers.

The sport of blind soccer has been part of the Paralympic Games since 2004, but the U.S. has never fielded a team. That will all change in 2028 when Los Angeles plays host to the Olympic and Paralympic Games and the U.S. will receive an automatic entry into the blind soccer competition as the host country.

"In the next six years, the world's two biggest sporting events will happen on American soil," said USABA CEO Molly Quinn. "In 2026, the FIFA World Cup will be played throughout the U.S. for the first time in three decades. In 2028, the Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games will take place in Los Angeles. It will mark the first time that L.A. has played host to the Paralympic Games."

The eight athletes with visual impairments named to the team are Noah Beckman (Columbus, Ohio), Cody Kirchner (Columbia, S.C.), Ahmed Shareef (Staten Island, N.Y.), Ricardo Castaneda (Fort Worth, Texas), Kevin Brown (Falls Church, Va.), Antoine Craig (Richmond, Va.), David Brown (Chula Vista, Calif.) and Alvaro Mora Arellano (Phoenix, Ariz.). The two sighted goalkeepers selected are Brandt Herron (Palm Coast, Fla.) and Kyle Knott (Brevard, N.C.).

"We are so excited to name the first ever USA Blind Soccer Men's National Team," said Head Coach Katie Smith. "It was incredible to see the growth of the athletes at this first national selection camp. It is truly incredible being a part of this revolutionary team and to have another Paralympic sport for blind athletes all over the country to aspire toward. I look forward to seeing how this National Team progresses toward our goal of the 2028 Paralympics."

Alternates for the USA Blind Soccer Men's National Team are John Marquez (Fort Worth, Texas) and Charles Catherine (Brooklyn, N.Y.). The team will begin competing in international friendlies in 2023.

GerdLi: New Supplement for Heartburn Was Made by a Physician Who Sought Natural Heartburn Relief

GerdLi: New Supplement for Heartburn Was Made by a Physician Who Sought Natural Heartburn...

After developing severe esophagitis and being prescribed life-long medications, Jimmy Minhas, a doctor and founder of GerdLi, researched and created the world's first natural supplement to relieve heartburn and acid reflux.

SEATTLE - November 1, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Physician-engineered GerdLi is the natural answer for people who live with acid reflux and heartburn. It's a premium-formulated antacid that maintains gut health and allows one to get back to eating the foods one loves. For those who hate to swallow pills, GerdLi comes as a small, easy-to-swallow capsule.

People that suffer from gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are left to take prescription medications and must reduce or eliminate eating spicy foods, acrid vegetables, fatty, fried foods, fruit juices, wine, coffee and soda. Even large meals or eating before bedtime can cause uncomfortable acid reflux symptoms and, at times, damage to the esophagus.

GerdLi contains D-limonene, derived from the rinds of citrus fruits such as oranges, mandarins, lemons, limes and grapefruits and works in several ways to help with GERD.

  • D-limonene decreases stomach acid
  • It relieves symptoms of GERD, including indigestion, sour taste, regurgitation and bloating
  • GerdLi is made with non-GMO ingredients, is vegan, gluten-free and has no artificial flavors or fillers

"So many products on the market aiming to combat GERD and acid reflux, but GerdLi is by far the best remedy I've used. GerdLi offers great relief and the fact that it's created by doctors makes it stand out even more." MK, Happy Customer

GerdLi was developed over three years, and after three months of trials and testing, half the participants found improvement in their GERD symptoms. GerdLi may work as soon as one week and averages 2-4 weeks for relief of acid reflux symptoms. One study showed 72% of the participants experienced improvement within the 2-4 week period. 

Although GerdLi is proven to alleviate heartburn and symptoms of GERD, lifestyle changes are just as crucial to a successful acid reflux regimen. GerdLi is meant to complement healthy lifestyle habits allowing patients to choose a natural way to relieve acid reflux and heartburn. Improved health includes staying active, eating clean foods and staying hydrated by drinking lots of water throughout the day. 

GerdLi is manufactured in a special FDA-registered facility, ensuring it's a safe supplement made with the highest quality ingredients. High-potency D-limonene is carefully sourced to be sure each bottle of GerdLi delivers the most effective results for reducing acid reflux. It works as an alkaline in the stomach to reduce acid, and its name is derived from lemon rinds, which have the highest concentration of limonene.

Once D-limonene is taken, it's rapidly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and distributed into tissue. GerdLi reduces heartburn and reflux symptoms and may help some people reduce the amount of prescription medication they take. 

The mission at GerdLi is to help people suffering from acid reflux while offering them an alternative to prescription medications that often cause side effects. GerdLi also cares about creating a healthier world, donating part of its proceeds to support the Esophageal Cancer Society.

Randy Foye & Ashley Howard Lead Collective to Maximize NIL Endorsement Opportunities and Help Student-Athletes Grow Their Brands

PHILADELPHIA - October 11, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Former members of the Villanova Wildcats family and community leaders in the Philadelphia area have partnered with Blueprint Sports, the industry leader in full-service Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) collectives, to unveil Friends of Nova — the first NIL collective supporting men's basketball student-athletes at Villanova University. As one of the nation's premier basketball programs, the Villanova Wildcats have won the NCAA D-1 National Championships three times, most recently in 2016 and 2018. 

Friends of Nova is spearheaded by Randy Foye and Ashley Howard, two legacy members and well-known figures of the Villanova men's basketball family. Both having deep ties to Villanova University's athletics program, Howard and Foye will serve as co-executive directors of the Friends of Nova collective. Howard previously served as the assistant coach for Villanova University's men's basketball team from 2013 to 2018 under then-Head Coach Jay Wright. Foye played on Villanova University's men's basketball team from 2002 to 2006, before being drafted in the first round of the 2006 NBA Draft and beginning his professional basketball career.

"Playing basketball at Villanova University was the honor of a lifetime and this opportunity to kick off Friends of Nova really means a lot to me," said Foye. "We are thrilled to give back and work hand in hand with supporters, fans, community members and alumni to build something meaningful and open doors to new possibilities for future generations of student-athletes."

Local and national businesses, as well as community supporters, have multiple options to engage with Villanova student-athletes. Friends of Nova builds partnerships between businesses, brands, and student-athletes for marketing opportunities, including online influencer campaigns, local appearances, youth sports coaching, speaking engagements, and more. Additionally, tax-deductible contributions can also be made through the BPS Foundation, a 501(c)(3) partner organization formed to educate, encourage, and assist student-athletes in their efforts to engage with the local community through charitable causes. 

"Friends of Nova will allow us to help provide opportunities for student-athletes to not only capitalize on their name, image and likeness, but connect with their community and learn about financial literacy," said Howard. "I look forward to spearheading this initiative alongside Randy to help support our Wildcat family and help the Villanova community be a part of something bigger."
