‘KidoodlED Million Dollar School Giveaway’ Wraps Up with Overwhelming Response from North American Schools

‘KidoodlED Million Dollar School Giveaway’ Wraps Up with Overwhelming Response from North American Schools

Schools Across Canada and the U.S. Celebrate Big Wins Toward Funding for School Projects

A Parent Media Co. Inc. (“APMC”), owner of Kidoodle.TV, the Safe Streaming™ service, announced the winners of its “KidoodlED Million Dollar School Giveaway” on June 16th, following a tremendous response from schools across Canada and the U.S. The contest saw more than 328,000 votes come in for schools vying for grants between $10,000 and $20,000 for critical school projects.  

Nominations for the contest opened on April 15th with public schools having an opportunity to flex their creative muscles aiming to win a $10,000 grant, with the top five schools with the highest number of votes winning $20,000. Voting took place between June 1st -15th, and on June 16th the winners were announced with Canadian schools capturing all top five spots.  

Schools from across the continent did not disappoint with highly creative submissions from students and teachers alike. From a parody of an episode of The Office to an endearing adaptation of Barenaked Ladies’ If I Had a Million Dollars, Kidoodle.TV’s heartstrings were tugged at with true creative energy.  

“The power of collaboration and community spirit displayed throughout the contest was remarkable. The spirited response we saw with these submissions was so heartening for our entire team,” said Neil Gruninger, APMC’s co-founder, president, and chief product officer.  

Maple Ridge Elementary School of Orleans, Ontario was one of the $20,000 grant winners. The kindergarten to Grade 8 school highlighted the need to repair the drainage issues in their outdoor play yard and upgrade the children’s connected spaces with more seating and exploring furniture.  

“This was a team effort that blew us away. We had voters from all over the world join us in our efforts to win. It was truly a global affair,” said Megan Nowiski, a kindergarten teacher at the school. She added that they were also very thankful to be supported by another school, Henry Munro Middle School. “They are a school in a very underserved community that voted daily for us. We are proud to have sent a generous sum of our extra winnings to them as a thank you.”  

Nowiski said the school plans to use the grant to repair their outdoor play area for kindergarten students, as well as create a new learning space in their front foyer and an outdoor garden for the entire school community to enjoy. “Thank you to KidoodlED for allowing us all to dream big and then turn those dreams into reality,” said Nowiski.  

For the students of Noel A. Smith Elementary of Frisco, Texas, the impact of winning the $10,000 grant will be profound, says Morgan Hicks, a teacher at the school. In their nomination video, a spoof of The Office, the administration discussed the need for new equipment for their makerspace, art resources and new gym equipment. She said the new resources would help students develop essential skills for the future and prepare them to confidently tackle challenges and embrace opportunities that lie ahead.  

Kidoodle.TV’s commitment to nurturing educational opportunities and fostering community involvement is intrinsic to their social impact initiatives like the KidoodlED Giveaway, and as they continue to grow, APMC’s dedication to giving back has become increasingly evident. 

APMC firmly believes in changing the world one school at a time and ensuring that educators have a safe and free option for streaming content that can be enjoyed in both classroom and home environments. The unified goal is to protect children online and off, all while providing educational shows that cater to a wide audience. 

“The KidoodlED giveaway was at the heart of our mission to ensure children and educators are given every opportunity to succeed and feel safe and heard in all schools,” said Gruninger.

Transform the Little Voice Inside Into a Powerful Roar: Dr. Esther Zeledón’s ‘Creating Your Limitless Life’ to Be Released on September 15, 2023

Transform the Little Voice Inside Into a Powerful Roar: Dr. Esther Zeledón’s ‘Creating Your Limitless Life’ to Be Released on September 15, 2023
\”Creating Your Limitless Life\” Dr Esther Zeledon

\”Creating Your Limitless Life\” by Dr Esther Zeledon

After migrating to the United States from Nicaragua as a young child, Esther Zeledón was destined to chase the American Dream. As a high achiever from an immigrant neighborhood, she ticked off each of the boxes on her checklist; graduated top of her class, received a scholarship to a prestigious college, completed a Ph.D. from UC Berkeley, had a career as a diplomat, and started a family. Everything suggested that her struggles had paid off and she had made it. Yet, she knew something was missing- alignment.  

That was when she became limitless.  

Find out how Dr Esther Zeledón went from burn-out to embracing the boundless life she now leads when Dean Publishing releases “Creating Your Limitless Life” this Hispanic Heritage Month on September 15, 2023 (9/15/23). Designed with the high achiever in mind, this inspiring book is a guide to awakening the extraordinary possibilities that await inside everybody no matter who they are or where they come from. With Esther’s incredible story and her three-step approach, “Creating Your Limitless Life” is a roadmap to living an authentic life full of joy.

“I wrote this book because I’ve seen so many people, myself included, get trapped in these societal molds that crush our spirits and leave us feeling anxious, depressed, and without clarity about who we are or what we want,” says Esther. “Even worse, we perpetuate the cycle by passing those same pressures on to others. We don’t stop to listen to what others really want or need, causing us to question ourselves and place our purpose and true legacy on the back burner. My life’s purpose is to unlock the full potential of individuals as they uncover, pursue, and financially support their missions, visions, and purposes. I want them to embrace their inner voice rather than fear it.” 

Synopsis

Creating Your Limitless Life” presents a transformative three-step approach, empowering high achievers to transcend societal expectations and navigate the challenges of balancing ambition with personal fulfillment. Drawing from Dr. Esther Zeledón’s experiences as an immigrant, entrepreneur, and diplomat, this book challenges conventional norms, highlighting the significance of active self-listening. Through practical tools and real-life case studies, readers are guided to listen and not fear their inner voice so they can uncover their purpose, craft a personalized roadmap, and cultivate resilience. Going beyond traditional self-help, this book equips individuals with the necessary resources to achieve clarity on their next steps, unlock their boundless potential and embrace a truly fulfilling life.

Rachael Sage Delivers Delightful Video/Single of Yazoo Classic ‘Only You’ Ahead of New Album

Rachael Sage Delivers Delightful Video/Single of Yazoo Classic ‘Only You’ Ahead of New Album

The Other Side Out July 21

Award-winning alt-folk-pop singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist Rachael Sage has just released a bubbly companion video to her single “Only You” from her forthcoming full-length studio album, The Other Side (out July 21, 2023, via MPress Records). A reinterpretation of the ’80s Yazoo classic, Rachael’s take on the song features its timeless melody with an updated arrangement complimenting Sage’s folky storytelling approach. The track is as much a revamp as it is a respectful homage to the beloved UK synth-pop original. Sage’s own acoustic guitar, Wurlitzer and Jupiter-8 synth parts, receive support from her longtime band The Sequins, including Grammy®-nominated cellist Dave Eggar.

Premiering in Guitar Girl, the dynamic video depicts a jubilant Sage recording in her closet, rehearsing in her living room, and dancing like nobody’s watching. Enjoy “Only You” here!

Sage explains her inspiration for covering the song, saying “A few years ago I saw the incredible Alison Moyet perform at Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC, and it had a huge impact on me. I had listened to Yazoo a lot as a kid (‘Upstairs At Eric’s’ was a cassette mainstay), and always admired how deceptively simple their sound was. Trendy arpeggiated synths couldn’t mask the fact that their songs were absolutely timeless and that the melody of a song like ‘Only You’ was equally an earworm as it was emotionally universal. I hope that if Alison and Vince Clarke (of the original group Yazoo) hear this track, they’ll feel how inspired I was by their work and that my stylistic spin on it will make them smile!”

The digital album, vinyl and deluxe physical CD – featuring 12 paintings by Sage, photographs by renowned Studio 54 photographer Bill Bernstein, along with a Bonus Disc of alternate mixes – can be pre-saved/ pre-ordered at: mpress.lnk.to/TheOtherSide. Both the audio and video versions of “Only You” are available on all streaming platforms and YouTube.

Please see rachaelsage.com for ongoing tour updates.

She has toured with Ani DiFranco, Beth Hart, Imelda May, Howard Jones, and Grammy® winners Marc Cohn, Shawn Colvin and Judy Collins – with whom she also recorded a critically-acclaimed duet of Neil Young’s “Helpless”. In addition to being a six-time Independent Music Award-winning musician and producer, Sage is also a John Lennon Contest Grand Prize winner who has performed at the Edinburgh Fringe, SXSW, and toured globally from Japan to Berlin. She is also a philanthropic advocate who has raised money for a wide range of causes, including the American Refugee Committee, National Network For Youth, and National Foundation For Women’s Cancer.

Tallen Drops ‘Technology Rentals’ From Its Name, Reaffirming Its Status as a Global Event Production Leader

Industry-leading global event production partner Tallen Technology Rentals has rebranded to more effectively represent and communicate their core values, mission, ethos, and market reach. Officially Tallen, the company believes that the shortened name speaks to a powerful brand with a long history of unmatched service and growing capabilities.

Tallen began as an audio-visual equipment rental company in 2002. Their service-driven approach to AV production resulted in quick expansion. Over the last two decades, Tallen has evolved into a full-service global event production partner, working on-site and behind the scenes at thousands of events each month. 

Tallen’s clientele includes Fortune 100 firms and leaders across various industries, including life sciences, finance, technology, and publishing. Regardless of industry, Tallen strives to go beyond simply delivering AV technology. As Tallen’s founder, Andrew Taffin, emphasizes, “Tallen isn’t just an AV provider; we’re a full-service production partner. We support our client’s success at every step, from pre-production and strategic planning through the event itself and beyond.”

Since Tallen rebranded, they’ve continued their long history of unmatched service and growing global event capabilities. Now, they’re taking their expertise on the road to Cvent CONNECT at Caesars Forum, Las Vegas, Nevada, on July 26th, 2023. See them at booth O12.

Cvent CONNECT is a major conference for those in the meetings, events, and hospitality industries. As a major player in event production, Tallen will take this opportunity to connect with many existing clients as well as introduce themselves to event professionals and meeting planners who can benefit from their decades of experience and audio-visual talent.
