WHITE PLAINS, New York, Dec. 2, 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Aidan Lamothe, age 7, of Manchester, New Hampshire, the 2014 March of Dimes National Ambassador, is helping lead the Foundation’s “Giving Tuesday” campaign by urging all his friends to help him construct a virtual “Giving Tower” being built by #CrowdRise, the one-day online charitable giving campaign that provides a positive alternative to the commercialism and consumerism that takes place during the holiday season.

Photo – http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20141202/161994

Born 12 weeks prematurely, weighing only 3 pounds,  Aidan spent the first seven weeks of his life in a newborn intensive care unit (NICU) being treated for breathing problems, low birthweight, and other prematurity-related issues. Today, he’s a happy, energetic, engaged and loving little boy who enjoys being outdoors, playing baseball, practicing the piano, and doing gymnastics.

“I know that the March of Dimes works very hard to help kids like me get better,” says Aidan. “I love to build things and I love helping the babies!  I hope this Giving Tower goes all the way up to the sky. It sounds like fun, especially since I know that making it grow helps the March of Dimes figure out ways to have all kids be healthy from the day they’re born.”

On December 2, every donation made through #CrowdRise will be represented by a brick on the Giving Tower.  Each contribution to the March of Dimes will be represented by a brick with the March of Dimes logo. As the contributions/bricks increase in number they will be stacked to form a virtual tower. Aidan and his family say they hope that the tower’s most prominent logo will be that of the March of Dimes, denoting increased support for the March of Dimes and its scientific research, treatments, vaccines and educational programs to prevent premature birth, birth defects and infant mortality.

Aidan Lamothe has a very special gift for sick and premature babies and their families.  For every $50 donation made to the March of Dimes via #CrowdRise, young Aidan will give a pair of tiny baby shoes to a baby being cared for in a newborn intensive care nursery (NICU). 

Participate in #CrowdRise by visiting https://www.crowdrise.com/MarchofDimes-Tower and choosing the amount of your donation to March of Dimes. A brick will appear and be moved to the next highest place in the tower. You can watch the tower grow in real time by downloading the free #GivingTower smartphone app from the iTunes store or Google Play.

“Helping to build the Giving Tower on December 2 through #CrowdRise is a very real way to be part of the passion and purpose of Aidan and other March of Dimes volunteers to provide good health for all babies and the families that love them,” says Deborah Barge, March of Dimes Vice President, Special Events.

See Aidan’s inspirational story at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqdqz2L28iQ. You can also follow the family as they travel the country on their National Ambassadors visits: http://www.facebook.com/MarchofDimesNationalAmbassador.

The March of Dimes National Ambassador Program is an annual campaign, started in 1946, that puts a face on the March of Dimes mission.  United Airlines will continue to serve as the official airline sponsor of the March of Dimes National Ambassador Program for the 9th consecutive year.

Winton Legal Services seeks Xarelto victims


PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 2, 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — A national legal services agency will provide immediate assistance for people that have suffered internal bleeding as a result of being prescribed Xarelto. The action, according to the agency, will communicate to the victims that they have a valid claim, and have suffered an injury that will be compensated.

While the expected compensation from a Xarelto injury is unknown, bad drug side effects have routinely resulted in six and seven figure awards to those injured. However the process routinely takes several years due to the sheer number of impacted victims.

Winton Legal Services handles client development for several major drug injury law firms. Their program will provide an individual that has taken Xarelto, and has suffered internal bleeding including the very common side effect of rectal bleeding, immediate compensation provided a hospital admitted them for at least one night. Through a partnership with a major ecommerce firm, individuals will receive a $2000 gift card package usable at thousands of different establishments.

Tens of thousands of individuals have been prescribed Xarelto. Litigation has been initiated in several jurisdictions around the nation that claims the drug’s manufacturer did not properly disclosed the internal bleeding side effect when the drug was first issued.

To notify Winton that you have been injured, and receive your immediate compensation, call 1-800-341-4996.

Moms of Color Organize Peaceful Protest of Ferguson Grand Jury Results


UPPER MARLBORO, Maryland, Dec. 2, 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — In response to the Ferguson, MO grand jury’s failure to indict Darren Wilson for the murder of unarmed teen, Michael Brown, Mocha Moms, Inc. organized a #blackboysmatter social media campaign to combat the negative stereotypes of black and brown boys. At the time of this press release, that social media campaign had exceeded 10-million impressions in less than two weeks.

Moms of color from across the country are submitting photos of their sons in an effort to put real faces to, and humanize black and brown boys in America.

“What these shootings in the last couple of years have shown us is that, for too much of America, black boys are threatening,” commented LaShaun Phillips-Martin, National Social Media Director for Mocha Moms, Inc. “We can’t change the grand jury decision but we can change the way America sees our boys. So we took to social media with positive images of our sons and the hashtag #blackboysmatter.”

In a statement issued shortly after the grand jury decision was announced, Mocha Moms, Inc. issued the following statement, which read in part:

“While we are disappointed, few of us are surprised. We respect the process of justice we have in this country. However, we will never accept the culture of preconceived notions and stereotypes that drives our sons unfairly and disproportionately into that process. We are so tired of our boys being killed. We are so tired of courts failing to recognize the value of our children’s lives.

We will continue to teach our children to be respectful. We will continue to teach our children to value themselves and others. The only way America can truly become the great society we claim ourselves to be is if Americans commit to doing the same, and stop marginalizing and criminalizing our black and brown children.”

ABOUT MOCHA MOMS, INC.

Mocha Moms, Inc. is a support group for mothers of color who have chosen to alter their career paths, either temporarily or permanently, to devote more time to their families and communities. While many of our members have eliminated employment altogether, others work part-time, flex-time, night shifts, have home-based businesses, consult or freelance from home or have chosen alternative, less demanding career paths so they are more available to their families. We support the decisions made by our members. We will never pass judgment on mothers who choose to make or are forced to make different decisions for their families.

Mocha Moms, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. Mocha Moms, Inc. does not discriminate on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender or socio-economic level, education, or religion. Anyone who supports the mission and purpose of Mocha Moms, Inc. is welcome to join.

The organization is essential because historically, mothers of color, particularly African-American mothers, have not had the opportunity to devote the majority of their time to caring for their own families. Mocha Moms, Inc. serves as an advocate for those mothers and encourages the spirit of community activism within its membership.

Honda

Four core vehicles in the Honda lineup contributed to a best-ever November for the brand. The newly redesigned CR-V led the Honda division’s record month, posting its best November sales ever while Pilot showed fresh strength with a double-digit increase; the two vehicles boosted Honda Trucks to a new November record. The Honda Fit also set a new November mark.

  • CR-V smashed its previous November milestone, with 32,378 units sold last month for an increase of 37.7 percent versus 2013. 
  • The Pilot showed new strength in a robust truck market for November with sales of 9,228 vehicles for an increase of 13.2 percent.
  • Together, CR-V and Pilot helped push Honda Trucks to a best-ever November, gaining 18.3 percent for the month on sales of 51,735 vehicles.
  • Honda Fit sales shattered the popular subcompact’s previous November best, recording a remarkable 55.1 percent rise on sales of 6,421 units.

“While the market seems to be constantly changing, Honda products continue to march on with strong performances month after month,” said Jeff Conrad, Honda division senior vice president and general manager. “Even with plummeting gas prices, compact models like the CR-V and Fit continue to resonate with buyers.”

Acura

Acura sedans pushed an overall brand increase in November, led by the new popular TLX and growing momentum from the ILX.  Acura trucks also fared well, maintaining strong market performance as MDX continues to lead the Acura division overall.

  • The Acura sedan lineup rose substantially in November, gaining 29.5 percent for the month on sales of 6,208 vehicles.
  • TLX was Acura’s second best-selling model again in November with over 4,200 units sold, even as tight supply of some models in the TLX lineup kept the new sedan from eclipsing its stellar October result.
  • ILX gained 4.4 percent for the month on sales of 1,652 units.

“The strength of Acura sedans is clearly on the rise since bringing the hot-selling TLX to market in late summer,” said Mike Accavitti, Acura division senior vice president and general manager. “And with demand outstripping supply, we see even more upside potential with TLX and the rest of our sedan lineup in the coming months.”

Get to Know Your Higher Education Options

Education opens the door to opportunity


WASHINGTON, Dec. 2, 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — For many people, higher education is the key to achieving your goals, and an essential part of your professional development.

Logo – http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20141030/155567LOGO
Logo – http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20141030/155566LOGO

There are different types of schools to help you meet your higher education goals:

Vocational schools

At vocational or trade schools, you can pursue careers that require specialized knowledge, such as auto mechanics, electrician, interior design, cosmetology, and more.

Most vocational schools are accredited and will help you look for a job in your field. The amount of time it takes to get certified depends on your area of specialization.

When choosing a vocational school, make sure it’s an accredited institution. To verify a school’s accreditation, consult the Department of Education’s Database of Accredited Postsecondary Institutions and Programs or the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) website.

Community colleges

At community colleges, also known as junior colleges, you can choose from a wide range of educational options after graduating from high school. You can study subject matters such as science and technology, engineering, math, general education requirements, etc.

After completing your coursework, which typically takes two years, you earn an associate’s degree. With this degree you have the option of transferring to a four-year university to complete a bachelor’s degree.

Universities

Upon completing high school, or transferring from a community college, you can pursue a bachelor’s degree at a traditional university. A bachelor’s degree is usually a four year program, although this may vary depending on your situation.

You can choose your major from among many fields: economics, engineering, business administration, architecture, and more. In addition to granting bachelor’s degrees, many universities have schools of law or medicine, as well as master’s and doctorate programs in many disciplines.

Getting financial aid for your higher education

The cost of higher education depends on many factors, like the type of institution you choose to attend and whether you are subject to out-of-state tuition, in the case of public colleges or universities. The Federal government offers financial aid to help you cover the costs of your higher education.

To learn more about education issues, see USA.gov and GobiernoUSA.gov, the U.S. Government’s official web portals in English and Spanish, and part of the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA).
