RIDGELAND, Miss., April 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Magnolia Health, a company of Centene Corporation (NYSE: CNC), today announced a donation of $2 million to Joyce’s Village of Hope project in Warren County to expand housing and support services for women and children transitioning out of domestic violence shelters. The program is operated by the Mississippi Center for Police & Sheriffs (MSCPS) and aims to help families move from crisis to stability.

Through this funding, MSCPS will expand supportive housing by developing eight homes dedicated to women and children exiting domestic violence shelters. The project also supports the Diapers to Doorsteps program, which provides monthly distributions of diapers and wipes for families with newborns and infants.

Aaron Sisk, president and CEO of Magnolia Health, said the investment reflects Magnolia’s ongoing commitment to strengthening communities across Mississippi.

“Programs like Joyce’s Village of Hope demonstrate how partnerships between community organizations and the private sector can make a meaningful difference for Mississippi families,” Sisk said. “We appreciate the opportunity that allows organizations like Magnolia Health to invest directly in projects that support vulnerable women and children.”

Funds from the donation were used to purchase trucks and maintenance equipment, refurbish infrastructure, enhance security and acquire mobile homes to support maternity and transitional housing needs.

Steven Pickett, executive director of the Mississippi Center for Police and Sheriffs, said the project will help vulnerable families regain stability during a difficult transition.

“These homes give families a real chance to reset and move forward with stability.” Pickett said. “By pairing safe housing with essential resources for mothers and infants, we’re helping women and children take the next step toward independence.”

How are investors rethinking opportunity as water and climate dynamics reshape real‑asset markets?

A new episode of Bloomberg Intelligence’s ESG Currents Podcast explores this question with Cat Burns (NatureVest, The Nature Conservancy), Alyssa Go (RRG Capital Management), and host Melanie Rua. The discussion explores incorporating water risk, climate constraints, and natural‑system resilience into decision‑making across agriculture and other real‑asset portfolios.

Highlights include:

  • The market is starting to catch up to what’s already happening on the ground. Climate shocks and material shifts in growing conditions like temperature and water availability aren’t theoretical, they’re hitting yields, operations, and bottom lines in real time.
  • Water security is emerging as one of the most critical issues for producers. How water is valued (and managed) is changing quickly.
  • “Nature as infrastructure” isn’t just a concept. From groundwater recharge to healthy soils, natural systems can reduce risk and stabilize returns in very tangible ways.
  • With the right structure, investing in resilience can drive financial performance and better outcomes for communities and ecosystems.

Listen to the episode:

This conversation offers a timely look at how the investment community is beginning to more consistently assess, price, and manage water‑related risk, and how science‑driven, resilience‑focused collaborations like this can help bridge the gap.

NEWARK, Calif., April 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Lucid Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: LCID), maker of the world’s most advanced software-defined vehicles and technologies, today announced that the Lucid Gravity has been named 2026 World Luxury Car of the Year by the esteemed World Car Awards program. In an awards category open to electric, hybrid, and internal-combustion vehicles, Lucid’s all-electric SUV was recognized by a global jury of more than 100 acclaimed automotive journalists from around the globe. Lucid is now 2-for-2 in this award category, with the Lucid Air sedan named World Luxury Car of the Year in 2023. Now in its 22nd year, the World Car Awards aim to recognize, reward and inspire automotive excellence, leadership and innovation in a rapidly changing automotive industry on a global scale.

“This recognition reflects the strength of Lucid’s product vision and the exceptional execution of our team,” said Marc Winterhoff, Interim CEO of Lucid. “Lucid Gravity brings together the space and versatility of a full-size SUV with sports‑car‑like driving dynamics and a refined luxury experience, enabled by our proprietary technology and engineering. Together, these qualities set a new benchmark for what a world‑class luxury SUV can be.”

On and off the road, Gravity’s exceptional performance starts with a brand-new platform developed from the ground up as a sporty SUV. Featuring two motors, all-wheel drive, and a standard adjustable air suspension, it’s an SUV that delivers a smooth, comfortable ride for passengers on any road, even when the pavement ends and the trail begins. The Lucid Gravity’s available rear-axle steering system enhances high-speed driving dynamics for exceptional handling on winding roads and makes day-to-day driving easier than ever by shortening the space needed for the vehicle to maneuver through tight city streets and crowded parking lots.

Lucid Gravity redefines the SUV category by delivering full‑size SUV practicality within a mid‑size footprint, with a spacious and accommodating interior comfortably seating up to seven adults while offering uncompromising space, efficiency, performance, and usability. The sliding second row seats combine with available integrated convenience tables for an elevated back-seat experience. Remarkable legroom is carried through to the third row, enabling a comfortable seven-passenger configuration, making it the ideal vehicle for every adventure.

Powering it all is Lucid Gravity’s high‑efficiency, miniaturized powertrain and ultra‑fast charging. The result is up to 450 miles of EPA-estimated driving range and DC fast-charging that can add 200 miles of range in less than 11 minutes, ensuring the easiest and fastest possible charging experience at over 32,500 DC fast charging stations in North America.

The Lucid Gravity will be featured at the 2026 New York International Auto Show from April 3-12. Not only can show attendees get a close look at its class-leading space and packaging, luxury appointments, and user experience first-hand, they can also experience Lucid Gravity’s performance in the show’s EV test track.

ST. LOUIS, April 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Nestlé Purina PetCare Company is helping support pets and people in rural Western Alaska by donating 45,000 pounds of Purina dog food to communities still recovering from Typhoon Halong.

The storm struck Alaska in October 2025 and brought hurricane-force winds and catastrophic flooding, heavily impacting nearly 50 rural and native communities. In many of these regions, dogs play a critical role in daily life, providing not only companionship, but transportation and safety—making access to nutrient dense pet food essential.

Purina learned about the ongoing need in Western Alaska from Dr. Arleigh Reynolds, DVM, PhD, D.A.C.V.N., a retired Purina veterinarian, scientist and current medical advisor working with Alaska Native Rural Veterinary, Inc., an organization dedicated to improving animal health in remote Alaska communities. “Purina has a long and dedicated history of helping pets and their owners when they need it most. Dogs play a huge role in the emotional and mental health resilience and recovery responses to traumatic events like this typhoon. We are so very grateful for this lifesaving support,” said Dr Reynolds.

“Dogs are essential to daily life in many of Alaska’s rural communities, and access to food can be a real challenge long after a disaster makes headlines,” said Angie Fitch, Executive Director & Co-Founder of Alaska Native Rural Veterinary, Inc. “Purina’s generosity—and the commitment of so many transportation partners—will make a meaningful difference for dog owners in communities that are still working to recover months after Typhoon Halong. This support helps ensure families can continue caring for the dogs they love and depend on.”

Moved by the scale and persistent challenges facing pet owners months after the storm, Purina mobilized a plan to send help. In addition to producing and donating a full truckload of dog food, Purina partnered with Greater Good Charities to coordinate the logistics required to transport the donation from the Purina factory in Eden, North Carolina, to a port in Tacoma, Washington. An emergency grant from the Purina Foundation covered the more than $6,000 in shipping costs, ensuring the food could make the long journey from the East Coast to the Pacific Northwest and continue on to Western Alaska.

Alaska Native Rural Veterinary, Inc. is now working with a network of transportation partners to deliver the donated dog food directly to pet owners in remote communities. These partners include TOTE Maritime, Carlile Transportation, Alaska Air Transit, Resolve Aviation, Aleutian Airways, NAC Alaska, Ryan Air, Warbelows Air Ventures and Everts Air —each playing a critical role in reaching communities that are often accessible only by air or sea.

“Recovery doesn’t end when the storm passes, especially in rural and remote communities,” said Kim Beardslee, Director of Community Affairs at Purina. “We’re proud to work alongside trusted partners to help ensure pets and people have the resources they need as these communities continue to rebuild.”

Supporting communities in times of crisis is a core part of Purina’s commitment to keeping pets and people together. In the wake of a natural disaster, Purina works closely with Greater Good Charities to provide timely assistance—combining pet food donations, emergency funding, and operational expertise to help pet owners care for their animals during recovery. From immediate response to long‑term rebuilding, Purina focuses on meeting critical needs where access to resources may be limited, ensuring pets continue to receive the care they deserve as communities heal.

About Purina

4th-generation executive director is proud to carry on the legacy of great-grandmother Bessie Tartt Wilson who founded the school on then-Holborn Terrace

BOSTON, April 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TARTTs Day Care Centers (“TARTTs”), a landmark institution in the Boston early childhood education landscape is proud to announce its 80th anniversary this year.

Founded in May of 1946 by Bessie Tartt Wilson, the historic milestone follows close behind the one-year anniversary of when TARTTs became part of the Cadence Education family. The transfer of ownership allowed TARTTs to maintain its family-centered mission while gaining the support of a national educational network.

“We are privileged to honor the mission that Bessie Tartt Wilson started eight decades ago, while ensuring that TARTTs has the modern resources to remain at the forefront of early childhood education in Boston, a city with such rich commitment to education,” CEO of Cadence Education Leigh-Ellen Louie said. 

Nida Wright Adjetey, former vice president and current Executive Director of TARTTs, said she was proud to remain on board to oversee the three locations she and her family built and maintained.

“Our long history is defined by resilience and a commitment to quality,” Wright Adjetey said. “From our roots in Roxbury/Dorchester to our expansion in the South End, we have always prioritized the social and academic development of the ‘total child.'”

The TARTTs story began when Bessie Tartt Wilson, then a 23-year-old recent nursing school graduate from Alabama, relocated to Boston to find work in her field. Everything changed due to lingering after-effects following a battle with polio that would have made it challenging to keep up with the physical demands of nursing. 

Wilson’s tenacity led her to pivot to early childhood education by providing care in her own home on a street that today we call Kavanaugh Way—formerly known as Holborn Terrace. The decision created a new life trajectory that would impact not only her family, but countless families in Boston—for generations to come.

In fact, following Wilson’s death in 1999, under the subsequent leadership of Bessie’s daughter, Mary L. Reed, and grandchildren, Ken Reed and Wanda Geer, the home-based business expanded into a commercial property. Until late 2019, TARTTs Day Care Center II occupied suites within the municipal building owned by the City of Boston at 1010 Massachusetts Ave., after purchasing and expanding the YMCA daycare operating at that site.

TARTTs thrived for almost 20 years at that location, which today continues to be a hub for Boston municipal services. And TARTTs has long since put down new roots elsewhere.

As the business outgrew its domestic roots, TARTTs successfully began transitioning into its current footprint in Boston’s vibrant South End and SoWa districts. All three locations are within walking distance of each other making it easy for parents and staff to navigate needs based on age-based services or availability within each location.

“We also have roots in the South End, where we were raised and my mom and grandmother still reside,”  Wright Adjetey said. “So, expanding to the South End was a profitable and strategic business move, but it was also returning home.”

Today, under the Cadence Education umbrella, the school operates three locations:

  • TARTTs South End (Harrison Ave.)
  • TARTTs SOWA (Harrison Ave.)
  • TARTTs at The Factory (Wareham St.)

“Celebrating 80 years is a testament to the enduring vision of my great-grandmother and the generations of families who have trusted us with their children’s futures,” said Wright Adjetey. “Our role is also to support the teachers who are the heart of TARTTs and to ensure our legacy of continuity of care remains the standard for Boston families.”

About TARTTs Day Care Centers
Founded in 1946 by Bessie Tartt Wilson in Boston, TARTTs Day Care Centers provides comprehensive early childhood education focused on social, physical, and academic development. Operating three locations in Boston’s South End and SoWa areas, TARTTs joined the Cadence Education family of schools in December 2024.

About Cadence Education
Cadence Education is one of the premier early childhood educators in the United States, operating more than 320 private preschools and elementary schools across the country. With over 30 years of experience, Cadence Education is dedicated to providing personalized excellence in childcare and early education. For more information, visit www.cadence-education.com.

Adults taking Foundayo lost an average of 27 pounds on the highest dose in the ATTAIN-1 clinical trial1

Foundayo, Lilly’s second FDA-approved obesity medicine, will be available via LillyDirect® with free home delivery, starting at $25 per month with commercial coverage and $149 for self-pay

INDIANAPOLIS, April 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) today announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Foundayo™ (orforglipron) for adults with obesity, or overweight with weight-related medical problems. When used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity, Foundayo helps individuals lose excess body weight and keep the weight off. Foundayo will be available via LillyDirect®, with prescriptions accepted immediately and shipping beginning April 6, followed shortly after by broad availability through U.S. retail pharmacies and telehealth providers.

“People living with obesity need treatment options that meet them where they are – and for many, a once-daily pill that can be taken with no food or water restrictions can offer them greater flexibility in how they approach their treatment,” said Deborah Horn, DO, director of the Center for Obesity Medicine at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston. “With Foundayo, we now have an oral option that delivered an average of 12.4% weight loss at the highest dose in clinical trials – addressing both the clinical realities of obesity and the practical challenges patients face every day.”

Supported by the rigorous ATTAIN clinical trial program, Foundayo was proven to help people lose weight and keep it off. In the ATTAIN-1 trial, individuals taking the highest dose of Foundayo and who stayed on treatment lost an average of 27.3 pounds (12.4%) compared to 2.2 pounds (0.9%) with placebo.1 Participants taking Foundayo, regardless of trial completion, lost an average of 25 pounds (11.1%), compared to 5.3 pounds (2.1%) with placebo.2 In the ATTAIN program, Foundayo also led to reductions in many markers of cardiovascular risk, including waist circumference, non-HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and systolic blood pressure across all doses.

“Today, fewer than 1 in 10 people who could benefit from a GLP-1 are taking one, held back by access, stigma, perceived complexity or the belief that their condition isn’t serious enough for treatment. We believe Foundayo can help level the playing field for those living with obesity or who are overweight and living with weight-related complications,” said David A. Ricks, chair and CEO of Eli Lilly and Company. “As a convenient, once-daily oral pill that delivers meaningful weight loss, this is obesity care designed for the real world.”

Lilly is committed to making Foundayo accessible and affordable. Eligible people with commercial insurance may pay as little as $25 per month with the Foundayo savings card.Individuals opting for self-pay can access Foundayo starting at $149 per month for the lowest dose. Additionally, eligible Medicare Part D individuals may be able to get Foundayo for $50 per month, beginning as soon as July 1, 2026.

Use of Foundayo with other GLP-1 receptor agonist medicines is not recommended. It is not known whether Foundayo is safe and effective for use in children. Foundayo may cause tumors in the thyroid, including thyroid cancer. Watch for possible symptoms, such as a lump or swelling in the neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing or shortness of breath. If you have any of these symptoms, tell your health care provider. The most common side effects of Foundayo include nausea, constipation, diarrhea, vomiting, indigestion, stomach (abdominal) pain, headache, swollen belly, feeling tired, belching, heartburn, gas, and hair loss. These are not all the possible side effects of Foundayo. Please see Indication and Safety Summary with Warning below and full Prescribing Information and Medication Guide.

“There is no single path that works for everyone living with overweight or obesity,” said Joe Nadglowski, president and CEO of the Obesity Action Coalition. “New treatment options expand choice and help more people find care that fits their lives, their goals and where they are in their journey – whether they’re just starting to explore treatment or looking for a different long-term approach.”

Lilly has submitted orforglipron for weight management and/or type 2 diabetes in more than 40 countries and plans to launch in each country shortly after approval.

About Foundayo (orforglipron)4
Foundayo™ (orforglipron) is FDA-approved for adults with obesity, or some adults with overweight who also have weight-related medical problems to reduce excess body weight and maintain weight reduction long term, alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Foundayo is a once-daily small molecule (non-peptide) oral glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist that can be taken any time of the day without restrictions on food and water intake.5 Orforglipron was discovered by Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and licensed by Lilly in 2018. In addition to chronic weight management, orforglipron is being studied as a potential treatment for type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, osteoarthritis knee pain, hypertension, peripheral artery disease and stress urinary incontinence.

About ATTAIN-1 and ATTAIN-2 clinical trial program
The ATTAIN Phase 3 global clinical development program for orforglipron has enrolled more than 4,500 people with obesity or overweight across two global registration trials.

The trial randomized 3,127 participants across the U.S., Brazil, China, India, Japan, South Korea, Puerto Rico, Slovakia, Spain and Taiwan to receive various doses of orforglipron or placebo along with healthy diet and physical activity. The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate that orforglipron is superior to placebo in body weight reduction from baseline after 72 weeks.

ATTAIN-2 (NCT05872620) is a Phase 3, 72-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety of various doses of orforglipron with placebo in adults with obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes. The trial randomized over 1,600 participants across the U.S., Argentina, Australia, Brazil, China, Czechia, Germany, Greece, India, South Korea and Puerto Rico to receive various doses of orforglipron or placebo along with healthy diet and physical activity. The primary objective of the study was to demonstrate that orforglipron is superior to placebo in mean body weight change from baseline at 72 weeks.

INDICATION AND SAFETY SUMMARY WITH WARNINGS
Foundayo™ (fown-DAY-oh) is a prescription medicine used with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity to help adults with obesity, or some adults with overweight who also have weight-related medical problems, to lose excess body weight and keep the weight off.

Gina Adams, Executive Vice President, General Counsel, and Secretary at FedEx, has been recognized by Dress for Success Worldwide as part of its annual Women Who Inspire global campaign. The campaign, held each March to celebrate International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month, spotlights extraordinary leaders within the Dress for Success community who embody resilience, purpose, and a commitment to lifting others up.

Dress for Success Worldwide is the leading global resource for empowering people to achieve economic mobility through a network of support, workplace attire, and development tools. FedEx has worked with the organization as part of our broader commitment to creating opportunity.

For Adams, the recognition is both personal and deeply connected to the values she carries in her work at FedEx. “This initiative celebrates women whose stories reflect resilience, purpose, and the power of lifting one another up — values that have guided me throughout my life and career,” she shared.
