LAS VEGAS, October 2, 2025 /3BL/ – Las Vegas Sands (NYSE: LVS) will contribute $400,000 to Americares as part of a two-year grant through the Sands Cares global community engagement program. Funding supports global emergency response and readiness programs, including continued investment in the organization’s Asia-Pacific emergency response hub.

With this commitment, Sands has joined the Americares Rapid Impact and Support for Emergencies (RISE) program, which provides the health-focused relief and development organization with a reliable stream of flexible funding to maintain a constant state of readiness and launch robust responses to natural disasters and humanitarian crises. The Sands Cares contribution supports Americares Global Readiness Team, which strengthens emergency and humanitarian assistance by enhancing organizational preparedness for responses.

Americares responds to more than 35 natural disasters and humanitarian crises worldwide each year, establishes long-term recovery projects and brings preparedness programs to communities vulnerable to disasters. Americares relief workers are among the first to respond to emergencies, helping to restore health services for survivors. The organization’s teams increase access to essential medicines and supplies, as well as provide medical care, surge staffing, emergency funding and psychosocial support for disaster survivors, frontline health workers and first responders. Americares maintains a Global Roster of more than 800 trained professionals who can be mobilized for deployment.

Sands has supported Americares since 2020 with Sands Cares funding for the Americares Asia-Pacific response hub in the Philippines and U.S. regional emergency readiness activities in Greater New York and the South/Southeastern United States.

“Sands’ generous support has greatly strengthened our Asia regional response operations as well as our global readiness to respond swiftly and effectively when disaster strikes,” Americares Deputy Senior Vice President of Emergency Programs Provash Budden said. “In becoming a RISE member, Sands has recognized the increased urgency of being ready to respond to more frequent and intense extreme weather events and more complex humanitarian crises.”

According to the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR), disasters now directly affect approximately 200 million people annually, cause medical emergencies and disrupt health care services with long-term health implications, including mental health impact. Populations most disproportionately impacted are people in low-income communities and countries that already lack the resources needed for adequate preparedness and response.

The 2025-2027 Sands Cares grant supports the following activities:

2025-2027 U.S. Headquarters Activities

Sands’ participation in the Americares RISE program will support Global Roster recruitment and training, equipment and the pre-positioning of response supplies. In year two of the Sands Cares engagement, Americares plans to host a World Health Organization EMT Type 1 Mobile Training for Global Roster members in the United States.

2025-2027 Asia-Pacific Activities

Sands Cares funding for the Asia-Pacific region will support Americares efforts to recruit at least 25 new emergency response roster members, pre-position relief supplies and equipment in regional warehouses, as well as host ongoing trainings for Asia-Pacific Global Roster members and Americares staff. ⁠Americares also plans to host a World Health Organization EMT Type 1 Mobile Training for Global Roster members in the Philippines.

Americares and Sands Cares – Previous Accomplishments

Through engagements beginning in 2020, Sands has helped Americares substantially grow its disaster readiness response capacity in the Asia-Pacific region, establishing a response hub in the Philippines and increasing its regional emergency roster from 20 to more than 180 members in 2024. With Sands Cares support, Americares also conducted its first large-scale emergency simulation

exercise at the Philippines regional hub. As a result, Americares launched responses out of the Philippines hub for Typhoons Doksuri, Noru, Goni, Vamco and Rai; Tropical Storm Nalgae; the Taal Volcano eruption in the Philippines and severe flooding in Vietnam.

In 2023, Sands expanded its support for Americares to the United States with a two-year contribution to help Americares build emergency response capabilities in the Tri-State area of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, as well as the South/Southeastern United States. Sands Cares’ support allowed Americares to recruit 25 new Global Roster members from the Tri-State area and host its first-ever, in-person Global Roster onboarding training in Queens, New York.

With funding from Sands Cares in 2024, Americares Global Readiness Team recruited 24 new emergency responders. They fill critical roles such as doctors, nurses, pharmacists, mental health and psychosocial support professionals, and safety and security officers throughout the Southeastern United States. Through Sands Cares support, Americares led a second Global Roster Onboarding Training in April 2025 for 14 of the new recruits in Houston. Sessions covered Americares emergency response interventions, deployment processes, equipment, safety, security and more.

“We recognize the growing number of global disasters and crisis situations along with Americares proven ability to mobilize on-the-ground response efforts that address both the immediate and long-term health of people impacted,” Ron Reese, senior vice president of global communications and corporate affairs, said. “Joining the RISE program reflects our desire to support Americares so that it can be nimble and effective to meet global humanitarian needs, while we continue our investment in the great work Americares is doing at the Asia-Pacific response hub.”

Sands’ partnership with Americares reflects its Sands Cares priority on supporting hardship relief initiatives in its communities around the world.

School leaders said building strong relationships and maintaining high expectations are points of focus

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Oct. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Students from the urban environment make up a significant portion of school populations nationwide. Many of these scholars face various challenges, which can hinder their academic performance and limit their opportunity in life. National Heritage Academies® (NHA) schools are helping students overcome these barriers and preparing them for what’s ahead.

Pembroke Academy, located in Detroit, was recognized for its work with a 2024 Blue Ribbon award and earned the distinction of an Exemplary Achievement Gap Closing School. They were the fourth Detroit elementary school to earn the honor.

Pembroke Principal Salwa Kinsey and Westfield Charter Academy Principal Ira Kleiman shared their priorities to aid students and close the achievement gaps for scholars in their communities.

Building Positive Relationships

While urban students are classified as such based on where they live and their local demographics, Kinsey shared that educating in this environment is deeply connected to students’ lived experiences.

It’s a priority for both Kinsey and Kleiman to understand their students and recognize the cultural richness everyone brings to their schools. This knowledge allows both leaders to establish a strong foundation for students and their families.

“That’s a key piece to get to know your students first and foremost,” Kinsey said. “The more we can learn about our students right from the start of the school year the better. We do the pre-assessments and understand what level everybody is at academically, but we’re also finding out their learning styles and interests.”

NHA teachers and leaders add to this foundation with positivity and care, building trust with families and students. Kleiman said his team at Westfield is constantly working on positive relationships.

“We’re constantly giving out positive affirmations,” Kleiman said. “It helps when you do have to have tougher conversations because they know it’s coming from a place of love and care. We always ask ‘Have you filled their bucket before you start taking from it? Have you made the deposit before you start making withdrawals?'”

Establishing High Expectations

Another way NHA schools are helping urban students grow is through high expectations. It’s a sentiment both Kinsey and Kleiman shared, adding that these standards are one of the many reasons families choose their schools.

“Parents don’t want their kids to just be passed along,” Kinsey said. “They want the high expectations and for everyone to be rowing and moving with a sense of urgency for the utmost success for their child’s education.”

Students are also held to high character expectations as taught to them in NHA’s Moral Focus™ curriculum. This focus on character and virtues such as respect, perseverance, and integrity, are helping teach the whole child.

These standards are established for every facet of the school day. From breakfast to recess to the final bell, the structure contributes to urban students’ success.

Kinsey said she spoke with a student who shared that the school’s expectations for traveling the halls made them feel safe. NHA leaders are showing that consistently holding students accountable to high standards is helping them succeed not only in the classroom, but it’s also helping them prepare for what’s ahead.

“High expectations prepare students for the world,” Kinsey said.

Targeted Instruction

Urban students begin school with a wide-ranging level of knowledge. Some students are new to the school environment while others may already be reading. Once NHA educators and leaders identify which students need extra help, they prioritize small-group learning and targeted intervention.

“We’re addressing those deficits as early as possible with the great curriculum we have,” Kleiman said. “If we keep kids with us for at least three years, they’re going to grow. Even if they aren’t proficient, they’ll be on the road to proficiency. I know what we do here works.”

Westfield Charter Academy has a teacher and paraprofessional in every K-2 classroom to provide students the attention they need. Kleiman said this approach allows his staff to provide intentional instruction to multiple small groups at once.

This strategy is not one that school leaders set at the beginning of the year and forget about. One key to ensuring small-group time and targeted intervention works is constantly updating groups.

Kinsey said that Pembroke Academy looks at student data every two weeks and determines if updates are needed. Her educators spend that time reviewing lesson and small-group plans so they aren’t spending instructional time setting up for the session. This process benefits both educators and students.

“We determine what skills to work on and then discuss why it was chosen,” Kinsey said. “We look at test score data, which can tell us where groups need improvement. It adds collaboration and it adds accountability as well. Having systems in place like that are beneficial.”

Transforming Lives

The work Kinsey and Kleiman do at their schools are directly connecting to NHA’s mission to transform lives. Building students up and providing individualized support helps set them up for success not only in their current classrooms, but also in their daily lives.

Kleiman said Westfield prioritizes meeting student needs for services they may not receive outside of school. This includes connecting scholars with eyeglasses and implementing more social-emotional learning. With this level of care in place, students are ready to learn.

“The biggest difference we can make is build students’ confidence and give them access to skills they need to be successful,” Kleiman said. “That’s why we do what we do.”

NHA’s urban leaders are seeing the difference they make in real time. Kleiman said he sees the pride on parents’ faces when Westfield holds Literacy Night and scholars are reading to them. He mentioned one student started the year unable to read but recently read to Kleiman.

“We are making a difference,” Kleiman said. “We are transforming lives. Seeing the pride in that student’s eyes, we know we made a difference for the student and their parents. They will have a better quality of life because of the environment we are giving them.”

HACKENSACK, N.J., Oct. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Clip Strip Corp., the inventor of the original Clip Strip® Brand Display Strip and a global leader in point-of-purchase merchandising solutions, today announced the official launch of their Eco-Clip Strip® Brand Display Strips, the company’s first line of sustainable display strips engineered to help reduce plastic waste while maintaining the strength and performance the industry depends on.

The Eco-Clip Strip® is manufactured with Eco-Fast™, a proprietary additive that accelerates the breakdown of plastic in anaerobic landfill environments – where traditional plastics can take hundreds of years to degrade.


“For years, we have tested bioplastics, paper-based solutions, and other so-called ‘green’ alternatives; none have met the high level of performance our customers demand,”
said John Spitaletta, CMO & Partner at Clip Strip Corp. “Our Eco-Clip Strip® line changes that. Strong, shelf-ready, and engineered to significantly reduce long-term environmental impact, it proves that sustainability and performance can go hand in hand.”

Unlike conventional materials that compromise on durability or function, Eco-Clip Strip® Merchandisers maintain the structural integrity required for effective retail display -ensuring reliability in high-traffic environments, even when holding heavier products.

Eco Benefits That Don’t Compromise Performance

  • Accelerated degradation in landfills: Eco-Fast™ enables plastic to break down up to 90% faster than untreated plastic in anaerobic landfill conditions.
     
  • Energy-positive impact: The methane released during breakdown can be captured and converted to renewable energy in many modern landfills.
     
  • Safe and compliant: Eco-Fast™ is tested to ASTM D5511 and D5526 standards, is OECD 301D certified, and is safe for food-contact use.
     
  • Recyclable where accepted: Made of polypropylene (PP #5), the strips are recyclable in communities with appropriate infrastructure.

Strategic Launch with Popular Models First

Clip Strip Corp. is initially offering the Eco-Clip Strip® formulation in two of its most widely used molded and versatile models – typically used for mid to heavier weight packages:


  • WMS-23-ECO

    a 24.875″ tall heavy-duty molded strip with 2.125″ wide x 1.375″ tall header
     

  • PL-24-ECO

    a 24″ tall heavy-duty molded strip with a 3″ wide x 1.375″ tall header

The company plans to expand the line based on customer demand, retail sustainability initiatives, and market feedback.

Leading by Example

With increasing pressure from consumers, brands, and retailers to reduce plastic waste, Eco-Clip Strip® offers a simple, scalable, and proactive solution for brands and retailers seeking to meet sustainability goals without redesigning their merchandising programs.

If more retailers began requiring sustainable POP materials like this,
added Charles Spitaletta, CEO & Partner, “it would quickly reshape the industry’s environmental footprint.”

Eco-Clip Strip® products are available now and they can be viewed or ordered at:

When Jimmy Chin shot the world’s first free solo climb of El Capitan in Yosemite National Park in 2017, staying easily connected to his family wasn’t an option. On expeditions like that one, it could take days to reach them. Fast forward just a few years, and things look very different. Not only has T-Mobile been named America’s Best Network, it now has one that delivers data from space with T-Satellite with Starlink.

And that means Chin can stay connected in places no terrestrial network can reach.

A pro climber and Oscar-winning filmmaker, Chin first put T-Satellite to the test this summer with science YouTuber Mark Rober in a video for T-Mobile. Shot deep in a remote area of Washington State, Chin said he found the service to be a “total game changer.”

“Part of the nice thing about being in a remote area is that sometimes you can’t communicate. It allows you to be 100% present and in the moment, which is really important,” Chin says. “Now that I am a father, though, I always make sure I have some way to communicate with the outside world. As life changes, so does what you need — and just being able to communicate with my family in ways and places never possible before is a huge deal!”

With T-Satellite now powering satellite-optimized apps like WhatsApp and AccuWeather, that means being able to check the weather or send a quick voice note even in the most remote of places in the U.S.

We talked with Chin about a life of adventure — and how T-Satellite, the largest satellite-to-mobile service, is helping him stay closer to the people who matter most wherever the climb takes him.

You’ve lived a life full of adventure as a professional climber, skier and filmmaker. You were even among the first three Americans to ski down Mt. Everest! How would you describe yourself in your own words?

That is definitely an answer that has evolved over time! First and foremost, I describe myself as a father. My kids mean the world to me. Beyond that, I would say I am an adventure enthusiast. There is no place I feel more at home than out in the wild — whether surfing a great swell, skiing down a mountain with fresh snow or climbing a rock wall with my friends. And of course, I love doing all of this with a camera in my hands!

You’ve been at the helm of movies such as Free Solo, which won the Academy Award for Best Documentary in 2019, and you’re a world-class athlete often on to the next big mountain with fellow elite athletes — including the climber profiled in Free Solo, Alex Honnold. What is it about adventure that draws you in?

Each day is different and unexpected things happen. I think that’s why I’m drawn to it. Our world also moves so fast, I love being in nature and reminding myself we really aren’t always in charge!

What was it like to be on an expedition before T-Satellite?

Even a small injury from anyone on an expedition requires attention by the whole team, and without this technology, you couldn’t call for help.  Or if something happened at home and they needed to reach you, it could sometimes take days.

What’s a way technology like T-Satellite can play a role in your future adventures?

The great thing about technology is that it allows us to push limits in a more safe and informed way — and T-Satellite makes that possible. Not only does it allow me to remain in contact with my loved ones, but it also can provide a further safety net for me and for the entire team out on an expedition. It’s vital.

That’s why I am incredibly excited by T-Satellite. It really elevates our ability to communicate on all levels. I learned that over 500,000 square miles in the U.S. aren’t covered by cell towers. That’s nearly twice the size of Texas! And I probably spend more time than most in those areas. So to have a provider like T-Mobile that prioritizes communication virtually everywhere in the country is really appealing to adventurers like me.

Recently, you were in a video with Mark Rober about T-Satellite. Can you give us the behind the scenes scoop on that experience?

We met in one of the most beautiful and remote places in the lower 48. We also had the most perfect day! As I think most people know, I love being in wild, remote areas that are rarely explored — so to experience that with Mark was a thrill. I have long been an admirer of his. And then to have him show up and say he had been texting his dad the whole time and let me communicate with my family through T-Satellite was a total game changer. It was really fun to experience this with Mark and to see how this technology is going to really help me on my future expeditions.
