DESCRIPTION:OKLAHOMA CITY, May 24, 2013 / 3BL Media/ PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Feed The Children, one of the country's largest disaster and hunger relief organizations, is ready to hit the road once again with corporate partner Fazoli's for the Breadsticks for Hunger Tour. And because the organization is one of the primary relief organizations for assistance to tornado victims in Moore, Oklahoma, which is located just miles away from its headquarters, it's hoping the tour will generate donations to replenish the resources it needs to combat childhood hunger in America and disaster relief in Oklahoma and other parts of the country.

The Breadsticks For Hunger Tour kicks-off in Lexington, Fazoli's home market, on May 30 with a food distribution for over 400 families. It will travel across America in a customized food truck making stops in 22 cities, including Oklahoma City, handing out Fazoli's breadsticks in an effort to raise awareness and funds for Feed The Children. As a part of the tour, Fazoli's has created a new flavor of Lemon Ice named "Giving Grape Lemon Ice" and will donate $1 to Feed The Children for every one it sells throughout the summer. Fazoli's is also encouraging businesses in each market to donate as well, with an incentive of $50 off any future catering order if the company donates $250 or more to Feed The Children. Last year the tour raised $50,000, plus donations of 9 tons of food. Those interested in tracking the tour can go to www.breadsticksforhunger.com.
Cathy Hull, Fazoli's Chief Marketing Officer, is excited to get the tour started. "Fazoli's is pleased to once again partner with Feed The Children," said Hull. "After seeing the difference the two organizations made in the lives of so many families last year, we're committed and eager to do the tour again. This year, we are also calling on local businesses and organizations for their support, with an incentive of $50 off a catering order for donations of $250 or more to Feed The Children."
At the Lexington kickoff event, a semi-trailer will be used to distribute food and essentials. Assistance in the distribution will be provided by the Hope Center in Lexington. Each family will receive a 25-pound box of food and a 10-pound box of personal care items. The boxes are designed to help a family of four for up to one week. More than one in four children living in Lexington, 26.5 percent, is considered impoverished. And according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, more than 16 million American children are at risk of hunger.
"We sincerely appreciate Fazoli's for its ongoing support to our mission," said Feed The Children Vice President of Strategic Initiatives Jill vanEgmond. "Our organization was personally impacted by the tornado in Moore, with seven of our employees losing their homes to the storm. It has also stretched the financial resources of our organization, especially since it occurred just before the summer months when the need for hunger assistance increases because schools are out and breakfast and lunch programs end."
Founded in 1979, Feed The Children's mission is to provide hope and resources for those without life's essentials. A BBB Wise Giving Alliance accredited charity, Feed The Children is one of the largest charities based in the U.S., providing more than 350,000 children around the world with a hot, nourishing meal every day. Here in the U.S., nearly 10 million people receive assistance each year from food and supplies distributed through over 1,200 local partner agencies. For more information, visit www.feedthechildren.org.
An American family favorite for more than 20 years, Fazoli's ranked #2 overall among large national fast-food chains in the prestigious Zagat Survey. With a premium menu of freshly prepared Italian entrees, oven-baked sandwiches and salads, a new service style featuring table service and a contemporary new restaurant design, Fazoli's is expanding throughout the country. Founded in Lexington, Ky. in 1988, Fazoli's was acquired by Sun Capital Partners in 2006.

DESCRIPTION:WASHINGTON, May 24, 2013 /3BL Media/PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The International diaspora Engagement Alliance (IdEA), Univision, and Project Phoenix announced the launch of Diasporta, an innovative partnership to engage diaspora communities, ethnic sports leagues, and sports companies, foundations, and media outlets in a collaborative process to tackle development challenges using sports in the developing world. The announcement was made at the 2013 Global Diaspora Forum in Washington, D.C. on May 14, 2013.
Diasporta aims to channel the widespread interest and shared passion for sports among diverse diaspora communities to contribute back to countries of origin and affinity. As a bridge for diaspora engagement, Diasporta will promote the role of sports in sustainable community development, particularly to support recovery, reconstruction, and resilience efforts. By leveraging the networks created by ethnic sports leagues and affinity groups, Diasporta will inspire and mobilize global diasporas in an effort to help rebuild communities by supporting infrastructure projects and community programs that engage sports as a platform. Efforts such as mentor linkages, will create enhanced opportunities for youth, as well as skills training and professional development.
Project Phoenix, a non-profit organization established by Haitian sports icon and CNN Hero, Boby Duval, and Delos co-founder, Morad Fareed, to impact desperate communities through creating bold sport projects and partnerships, is the centerpiece example of Diasporta's mission. Launched through a Clinton Global Initiative 2012 commitment, the Phoenix Stadium is a 12,000 seat professional soccer stadium complex to be built in Cite Soleil, Haiti. The stadium, designed by world-renowned architect Carlos Zapata, will also house LADH, a youth development program that provides impoverished children with a safe, clean, and supportive environment where they can learn the discipline of sports and the structure of teamwork—and offer a soccer academy, elementary and middle school dormitories. It will be landscaped with edible gardens, a small lake containing tilapia, a composting and recycling plant, as well as serve as the new centerpiece.
Diasporta seeks to build partnerships in support of Project Phoenix. A media partnership with Univision is also helping to raise awareness of the project. Univision's News and Sports divisions will offer support and coverage of the projects as they grow and develop. Univision is the most-watched Spanish-language television network in the country and one of the top five networks in the United States regardless of language.
"Soccer is one of the passion points for the Caribbean and Hispanic community and the launch of Phoenix Stadium is the perfect centerpiece for Diasporta. When complete, the project will increase access to play and education for Haitian youth, and be a great example of solidarity in the Americas," says Stephen Keppel, Director of Empowerment Initiatives, Univision Network News.
One of the first Diasporta activities will take place on June 8 in Miami, Fla. at the highly anticipated exhibition soccer match between the reigning World Cup Champions, Spain, and the Haitian National Team. Proceeds from ticket sales will go to support Project Phoenix.
"Diasporta's support and vision is invaluable to the Phoenix Stadium's mission," says Boby Duval, Founder of Project Phoenix. "Diasporta will enhance our effort by bringing the right partner-mentors to the table."
About Diasporta
Diasporta is made possible by a consortium of synergetic private, public, and civil society institutions that are committed to utilize the convening power of sports to tackle global challenges.

DESCRIPTION:What do disaster relief, social impact, strategic mission alignment, pro bono, human rights activism, and employee engagement have in common? They’re all terms now used to define corporate volunteerism, circa 2013. Volunteerism in the workplace no longer means just an annual day of giving, in employee work hours and donations. Those traditional practices continue, particularly at legacy corporations with a long history of philanthropy and corporate citizenship. They are good practices, to be sure. Many charities, nonprofits, and community organizations depend on philanthropic dollars and the helping hands of volunteers from business to achieve their goals. But for today’s more dynamic companies and younger work force, the traditional ways are not always enough.
What I heard at the recent VolunteerMatch Client Summit is that corporate volunteerism is now evolving into a variety of diverse, innovative, and more in-depth programs. The many different titles of those attending the Summit indicated the wide range of contemporary volunteerism practices: director, community engagement; reputation and social impact manager; VP of partnerships; and program manager are a few examples. The variety and the larger scale of current volunteer programs are being largely driven by a younger, millennial work force that is asking for deeper engagement in such activities through the workplace. Because of this paradigm shift, new volunteer initiatives are now being more fully integrated into business plans, from daily operations to long-term strategies.
Volunteer activities are becoming part of the basic DNA of companies, just as CSR and sustainability ideas are now included in core business models. Volunteering is becoming a practice that many companies and organizations, and their employees and stakeholders, work at every day, in the course of business as usual. That has implications for the bottom line, from employee retention and productivity to the development of new markets for products and services. A new metric, a dollars and cents measurement of ROI, is being applied to what has historically been a generalized "good works" statement. This new volunteerism is turning into a tangible asset in the overall corporate tool kit to complete the work of business.

(ENTRAVISION) ODESSA, TX. – Con el aumento en transito en el Permian Basin, la empresa ferriovaria Union Pacific espera que con estos nuevos anuncios espectaculares, las personas tengan mas cuidado al cruzar las vias de tren. "Nosotros tenemos una campaña que se llama, 'Ciudado Con el Tren,' o, 'Always Expect a Train,' esto incluye anuncios por la calles," dijo Raquel Espinoza, portavoz de la empresa Union Pacific.
Esto anuncios incluye calles que hoy en dia se encuentran saturadasde personas conduciendo vehiculos comerciales.
"Las personas andan de prisa y andamos muy distraidos con los celulares y diferentes cosas, es importante que cuando uno va cerca de las vias enfocar, especialmente para asegurar que uno seguro," dijo Espinoza.
El parar en vez de tratar de ganarle al tren, evitara un tragico accidente, ya que un tren no tiene la capacidad de detenerse de inmediato como un automobil.
"Un tren no se puede parrar inmediamente se puede tomar mas de una milla para parase completamente," según Espinoza.
Existen varios consejos que no solo evitara ser multado, hasta le podria salvarle la vida.
"Donde la calle se topa con las vias y hay señalmientos o diferentes cosas que marcan y dicen, aquí hay vias y hay que tener ciudado, y legalmente uno tiene que sederle el paso al tren, y si viene un tren hay que pararse." ella dijo.
Para conocer mas sobre la campaña, "Cuidado Con el Tren," puede ingresar a la pagina Web, ciudadoconeltren.com.

DESCRIPTION:Guest blog from Amy Sousa, Communication Director for Lilly's emerging markets business area. Amy wrote this blog from Zandspruit, South Africa, where she is currently volunteering as part of our Connecting Hearts Abroad program.
Like a lot of volunteers, I did my research ahead of time. On the history, the climate, the healthcare system, the greatest challenges facing the poor.
“I came open,” said one of my fellow volunteers. “Open to help, to do what I need to do, open to the experience.”
Now that I’ve been at the HOPE Centre healthcare clinic located in Zandspruit, an informal settlement in Johannesburg, South Africa, I see that as the better approach. The HOPE Centre provides treatment and education to local residents about health issues, especially diabetes and hypertension.
Unfortunately, openness still won’t protect you from the shock of seeing thousands of shacks leaning against each other for support, sewage running through the streets, and limited access to basic healthcare, water and electricity. But openness will keep you from being overwhelmed by the magnitude of need.

DESCRIPTION:May 23, 2013 /3BL Media/ - UPS announced a coordinated plan with its key disaster relief partners that will provide urgent relief as well as strategic support for the long-term recovery efforts needed in Moore, Oklahoma, as well as Cleburne and Shawnee, following the devastation caused by the tornadoes that struck there earlier this week.
"In addition to the $550,000 cash and in-kind support contributed to the American Red Cross's Annual Disaster Giving Program last month, we're pledging an additional $250,000 to execute the plan we have developed with our partners, which will provide urgent relief and support for the long-term recovery needs of these communities," said Eduardo Martinez, president of The UPS Foundation.
UPS's financial and in-kind contribution is comprised of several grant recipients:
UPS is already moving a shipment of equipment that will be used to provide communications service to the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the city of Moore, the local Fire Department and other disaster response groups. UPS has also been in daily contact with the American Red Cross staff since the tornadoes touched down to assess the areas in most need of assistance, offering in-kind support as well as the help of our trained Logistics Action Team.
Earlier this year, as a leading member of the American Red Cross's Annual Disaster Giving Program, UPS contributed to help enable the organization to respond to the nearly 70,000 disasters that occur throughout the year. UPS believes in giving support before disasters occur so relief agencies will have funds and in-kind support at their disposal to act immediately when a disaster strikes.
Last year, UPS supported more than 200 humanitarian relief programs in 35 countries. This includes programs that prepare communities for a crisis, providing them with urgent relief when a crisis occurs and post-crisis recovery phase support. Through a combination of in-kind shipments, technical and expertise sharing and funding of relief organizations, UPS contributed in excess of $6.5 million in 2012. This includes areas impacted by natural disasters such as Superstorm Sandy and Hurricane Isaac as well as global crises in the Sudan and the Congo.
UPS has a long history of working with disaster relief organizations to deliver critical, life-saving aid to communities in need around the world," said Martinez. "The victims of the Oklahoma tornadoes are facing many hardships. By donating financial and logistical support to organizations that will provide assistance in the days, weeks and months ahead, UPS is helping ensure impacted citizens have a reliable, efficient and predictable path back to recovery."

DESCRIPTION:NEW YORK, May 22, 2013 /3BL Media/ - LIFT, a national organization working to help families facing tough times achieve economic stability and well-being in the United States, has announced Capital One’s commitment to a multi-year investment totaling $1 million toward LIFT’s work to expand economic opportunities for people striving for a better future for themselves and their families. In addition, the investment includes in-kind services for on-the-ground community support from Capital One’s regional associates. This announcement was made at the LIFT Annual Spring Benefit—the organization’s flagship fundraising event of which Capital One is the premiere sponsor—held last night at the Highline Ballroom in Manhattan.
“At both Capital One and LIFT, we understand that poverty is a complex and multi-faceted problem and all of its associated issues—unemployment, homelessness, hunger, illiteracy, health care costs, and more—are interlinked,” said Heather Cox, LIFT national board member and executive vice president, U.S. Card Operations at Capital One. “Working together, we hope to help reshape the national conversation on poverty in a manner that recognizes the inherent dignity, value and potential of all individuals and works to find solutions to this complicated issue.”
This multi-layered, multi-year partnership comes as an expansion to current regional engagements where Capital One is a key supporter of LIFT’s comprehensive and customized wrap-around services to families. This support enables LIFT to further address the multi-generational cycle of poverty in six key U.S. cities: Chicago, Washington DC, New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Los Angeles.
“This partnership is a critical step forward in our ability to advance our work. The fact is that millions of our neighbors are in—or on the verge of—economic crisis. And our experience has shown that moving past crisis to economic stability requires more than income. It requires strengthening a person’s confidence, making sure they have people in their corner, and navigating to the resources they need to stabilize their lives, like decent jobs and safe housing,” says Kirsten Lodal, CEO and co-founder of LIFT. “Quite simply, at LIFT we believe we all need the same types of support—confidence, connections and resources—to get through shaky ground moments in our lives, regardless of our neighborhood or our background. We are proud to have Capital One as a partner in these efforts.”
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, approximately 50 million Americans—one in six individuals—live below the poverty line. According to the federal poverty measure, a family of four is considered below the poverty line if it earns less than $23,550 a year, which translates into an average of $16 per person per day to cover basic daily needs, such as food, bus fare to doctor’s appointments and utility bills.
LIFT aims to establish a new standard for holistic and enduring solutions in our country’s fight against poverty through its comprehensive and compassionate model that helps its clients to secure better-paying jobs, safer homes, valuable education and training, and the means to afford healthcare, transportation and food.
During the organization’s Annual Spring Benefit, entitled “LIFTing Our Veterans,” LIFT celebrated a year of remarkable growth and achievement, and formally launched its New York office’s Veteran’s Initiative—a veterans-serving-veterans model of support where veterans can work collaboratively with a LIFT advocate to locate employment, housing, and other critical services. The event featured a Capital One sponsored concert by the New Directions Veterans Choir, an award winning a cappella group that consists of men and women who have served proudly in the United States Military. The group members, all of whom have experienced moments of crisis such as homelessness and unemployment, shared their journey to solid ground and stability with guests.
