Kmart Encourages Shoppers to be Superheroes for the March of Dimes®

June 7, 2016

HOFFMAN ESTATES, Illinois, June 7, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — As the top corporate fundraiser for the March of Dimes, Kmart is leading the charge for another year of donations by calling on its Shop Your Way members and shoppers to join the fight and be a superhero for at-risk moms and babies. The funds raised by Kmart will help support teams of scientists who are working to discover the unknown causes of premature birth and develop innovative treatments.

“As a mom of triplets born five weeks premature, March of Dimes is a cause that is very close to my heart,” says Kelly Cook, chief marketing officer for Kmart. “Kmart is so proud of our relationship with this organization that fights for the health of mothers and their babies. We are privileged to bring March of Dimes closer to our members and shoppers.”

This year, Kmart is embarking on its 33rd consecutive year of supporting the March of Dimes through the heroic support of its associates, members and customers, and there is still time to give. Kmart is encouraging shoppers to visit their local Kmart store on Saturday, June 11, for a very special Freebie Saturday featuring a purple superhero mask. Superheroes are encouraged to snap a photo and share it socially with #LIFEISRIDICULOUSLYAWESOME and #SUPERHERO4BABIES to inspire others to give. Shoppers can also help spread the word by sharing the official March of Dimes Kmart Freebie Saturday: June 11^th– Masks YouTube video calling all superheroes to step forward.

“Thanks to Kmart we are able to serve moms and babies in communities across the country,” says Dr. Jennifer L. Howse, president of the March of Dimes. “The superhero efforts from the entire Kmart team and its shoppers will allow us to fund cutting-edge research, provide community programs and advocate to give all babies a fighting chance.”

To date, Kmart has raised nearly $140 million to help advance the critical work being done by March of Dimes on behalf of all babies. These efforts have helped reduce the premature birth rate from an all-time high in 2006. However, for the first time in eight years, the national preterm birth rate has increased rather than decreased. And many communities continue to suffer from the tragic and costly consequences of double-digit rates of premature birth. Donations can help moms and babies by:

Providing funds to a network of researchers working to prevent premature birth
Providing the best information on healthy pregnancy and delivery
Advocating for better healthcare coverage for the most vulnerable
Fighting for better newborn screening standards in every state
Helping moms to overcome substance abuse with community outreach programs
Increasing access to prenatal care with mobile clinics and transportation to doctors
Educating generations of parents on the value of vaccination

Now through June 18, shoppers can show their superpowers at Kmart by donating to the March of Dimes at checkout in-store or online at http://www.kmart.com/en_us/dap/Kmart-and-March-of-Dimes.html.

Carnival Foundation’s $2.5 Million Donation Helps The Nature Conservancy Launch Online Atlas, Protect and Manage Conservation Efforts in the Caribbean

June 7, 2016

La donacion de $2,5 millones de dolares de Carnival Foundation ayuda a The Nature Conservancy a lanzar un atlas online y a proteger y administrar esfuerzos de conservacion en el Caribe

MIAMI, June 7, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL; NYSE: CUK), the world’s largest leisure travel company, announced today that its second consecutive year of supporting The Nature Conservancy helped the organization continue its momentum in protecting the world’s oceans and seas. As part of achieving its 2020 sustainability goals, Carnival Corporation is providing through the Carnival Foundation a $2.5 million gift over a five-year period to The Nature Conservancy, which began in 2014.

Carnival Foundation's $2.5 Million Donation Helps The Nature Conservancy Launch Online Atlas, Protect and Manage Conservation Efforts in the Caribbean

The highlights from The Nature Conservancy’s initiatives in 2015 include:

Helping the Bahamas expand marine protection areas by more than 11 million acres.
Supporting the establishment of National Protected Area Trust Funds in seven Caribbean countries, which can be used to address specific conservation challenges as they arise.
Advancing marine protection efforts at Los Haitises National Park and Samaná Bay in the Dominican Republic.
Launching an Atlas of Ocean Wealth, supported by multiple international online tools, detailed maps, marine life databases and other resources to educate and inspire community leaders engaged in ocean planning.

Carnival Corporation’s 2020 Sustainability Goals – embraced by the company and its 10 cruise line brands around the world — reflect the company’s dedication to operating with a high level of responsible sustainability in the oceans, seas and ports of call in which its ships operate. The donation to The Nature Conservancy and many other environmental groups underscores its commitment.

“With 101 ships traveling the world’s oceans and seas and more than 700 ports of call, our deep commitment to protecting and sustaining our environment is a top corporate priority,” said Roger Frizzell, chief communications officer for Carnival Corporation, who also oversees the Carnival Foundation. “On the eve of World Oceans Day on June 8, it is fitting to applaud The Nature Conservancy for again making great strides in identifying critical areas for public and private action in support of our oceans and seas, such as coastal production and fish population levels. We are proud to continue to support The Nature Conservancy.”

Also through the support of the Carnival Foundation, in the past year The Nature Conservancy was able to generate for decision makers new comprehensive data about coral reef conditions throughout the Caribbean, as well as research on the success of conservation efforts tied to oyster reefs and new maps of fish production connected to Caribbean mangrove growths.

Carnival Corporation also hosted The Nature Conservancy’s 2016 Mapping Ocean Wealth conference in January at its Miami corporate headquarters, where conservationists and decision-makers from around the world came together to discuss ocean sustainability initiatives. As a result of the annual meeting, The Nature Conservancy’s data on mapping vast ocean resources is now being directly displayed in The World Bank’s Spatial Agent, its decision-support tool used by World Bank economists and government leaders to identify the most pressing social and environmental issues the World Bank can address.

“The Nature Conservancy truly appreciates Carnival Foundation’s support for our global and Caribbean-specific oceans conservation work,” said Maria Damanaki, global managing director for The Nature Conservancy’s Ocean Program. “Carnival Foundation’s five-year commitment to preserving the world’s vital marine resources – and the many benefits they provide – has a major impact on our efforts.”

Added Damanaki: “As we look ahead to the next three years, by supporting our Caribbean Challenge Initiative, Carnival Foundation’s support will help nearly triple the protection of the region’s iconic waters and coasts by helping conserve 21 million acres of these important areas. Through The Nature Conservancy’s Mapping Ocean Wealth project, Carnival Foundation’s support will also provide a fundamentally new kind of ocean knowledge that is needed to protect our waters and transform their management now and for generations to come.”

Public awareness campaigns are another important aspect of building support for conservation in the Caribbean. The previous year has seen a variety of community education initiatives, made possible from Carnival Corporation and the Carnival Foundation. These include the production of songs, music videos, Public Service Announcements, presentations, beach clean-ups and billboards. As with all The Nature Conservancy’s efforts, the collateral material is geared towards raising awareness and participation in initiatives designed to support a balanced approach to preserving marine habitats throughout the Caribbean and around the world.

Mosquitoes And Diseases They Carry: Experts Say Control With Insect Screening

June 7, 2016

Health experts recommend installing or repairing window and door screens as one measure of preventing mosquito bites.

TUSCALOOSA, Alabama, June 7, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — As news of the Zika virus continues to dominate headlines, health experts recommend taking precautionary measures, including installing insect screening, to help prevent further spread of the mosquito-borne disease.

Photo – http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20160603/375464

Warnings of the recent Zika outbreak gained traction earlier this year after the disease spread to almost every country in the Americas. On Feb. 1, the Zika virus was declared a global public health emergency by the World Health Organization. On April 13, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released a report confirming that the Zika virus can cause a rare birth defect called microcephaly, a neurological disorder that results in babies being born with abnormally-small heads and developmental issues.

While efforts to find a vaccine are underway, in the meantime, education and prevention are key. Installing or repairing damaged insect screens is a simple, low-cost home improvement that can be completed as a DIY project or by a local contractor. Phifer Incorporated, the world’s largest and only Made in the U.S.A. manufacturer of insect screening, is actively participating in forums and on-site visits to brainstorm ideas for installing insect screening in various types of windows, doors and openings, including areas outside of the U.S. Other CDC-recommended precautions include wearing long sleeves and pants, applying insect repellent and placing netting over infant carriers when outside.

Mosquito-borne diseases account for millions of deaths annually. Other diseases transmitted by mosquitoes include West Nile, yellow fever and encephalitis.

ABOUT PHIFER
Founded in 1952 by J. Reese Phifer and located in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, Phifer is a family-owned, diversified manufacturer of woven wire, cutting-edge, fiberglass and polyester screen products for windows and doors, interior and exterior solar screening, sling and cushion furniture fabrics, drawn metal wire and engineered products used in a variety of industrial applications.

Soaring Wait Times, Airfares, Baggage Fees Make Driving the Way to Go

June 7, 2016

BETHESDA, Maryland, June 7, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The news is full of stories about soaring airfares, checked bag fees and extended wait times in airport security lines. When you consider the time and cost of flying, it becomes clear that travel by car is the way to go, says the non-profit Car Care Council.

“Standing in line for hours in order to board an overcrowded plane after paying extra to check bags has made air travel a real headache,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. “With no relief in sight, more and more travelers are realizing the benefits of driving to their destinations. Since a family of four can travel 1,000 miles round-trip by car for about the cost of one airline ticket, driving is clearly the sensible option.”

In addition to direct cost savings, travel by car offers a number of practical advantages over flying and lets you better enjoy the ride:

Leave when you want, from where you want.
Pack whatever and as much as you want.
No waiting in long ticket counter and security lines.
No weather delays.
No baggage, meal or headset fees.
More and better meal options.
No airport parking, rental car or taxi expenses.
More legroom and overall comfort.
Stop and stretch any time.
No strangers sitting next to you.
Convenience and ease of taking your pet with you.

Before you hit the road, the Car Care Council recommends that you get your vehicle inspected, restock your emergency kit and order a free copy of the Car Care Council’s popular Car Care Guide for the glove box at www.carcare.org/car-care-guide.

Rev. Samuel Rodriguez Shares Science Surrounding Biblical Mandate to “Be Light”

June 7, 2016

National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference logo

SACRAMENTO, California, June 6, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Light has been a critical component of existence since the very beginning when the universe heard the directive from the Sovereign God, “Let there be light.” Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, lead pastor of New Season and President/CEO of one of the world’s largest evangelical organizations, shares about the laws that govern light and the parallels that can be drawn from them in “Be Light: Shining God’s Beauty, Truth, and Hope into a Darkened World” (WaterBrook, ISBN: 987-1-60142-816-5).

“Scientists know so much and yet so little about light,” said Rodriguez. “In examining the properties of light, I have found many intriguing insights that also help me understand what it means, spiritually, to ‘be light.’ Like all facets of creation, light reveals clues about God and His characteristics, so understanding more about light helps us know more about Him.”

“Be Light” is a biblical mandate. The word “light” is mentioned more than 200 times in the Bible. Light is an important part of the Christian narrative, beginning in Genesis, that carries through when Jesus exclaimed, “You are the light of the world.”

“The light that God has given us can never be obsolete. There is no more efficient or powerful version to come in the future. His light is not subject to decay that is an inherent part of our daily lives. It gives ‘truth.’ It ‘makes us good.’ This is the light of the world that we must seek so that each day is a living testament of worship to our God,” writes Rodriguez.

“Be Light,” can be read as a 30-day journey, with each chapter portraying a spiritual analogy to light, including:

The Law of Reflection and how Christians reflect the light of Christ
Refraction: Bending Light and the process of God working in us to bring us to a place where we can be used more effectively
Lasers and wavelengths and how they can show us about unifying our hearts and minds to God
Stars and being beams of truth
Lightening and being good conductors
The Milky Way and being a magnet field to draw ourselves and others into an eternal orbit around God

Each chapter also shares real-life examples and testimonies, scripture and a reflection to lead the reader to action.

“Be Light” released from WaterBrook, an imprint of Crown at Penguin Random House, LLC, in May, and landed on the Los Angeles Times Hardcover Nonfiction Bestsellers List for the week of May 29.

Roma Downey, producer, celebrated actress, and president and chief content officer at LightWorkers Media, a division of MGM Studios, wrote the foreword to the book. “Be Light” has also been endorsed by a number of Christian leaders including: Dr. Ronnie Floyd, president, Southern Baptist Convention and senior pastor of Cross Church, Robert Morrison, founding senior pastor at Gateway Church, and James Robison, founder and president of LIFE Outreach International.

Rev. Samuel Rodriguez is president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference (NHCLC), the world’s largest Hispanic Christian organization, which serves as a representative voice for the more than 100 million Hispanic Evangelicals assembled in over 40,000 U.S. churches and another 500,000 congregations spread throughout the Spanish-speaking diaspora. He has been named by CNN and Fox News as “the leader of the Hispanic Evangelical movement” and Newsmax included him in the “Top 100 Christian Leaders in America.” For more information, visit http://pastorsam.com/.
