San Diego Foundation Launches National Rainbow College Fund in California

National Rainbow College Fund

Today, San Diego Foundation (SDF) launched the National Rainbow College Fund (NRCF) in California, the first scholarship designed to exclusively support LGBTQ+ students pursuing their ambitions for higher education regardless of the public nature of their sexual and gender identity. The National Rainbow College Fund is powered by San Diego Foundation, one of the largest community foundations in the U.S. and the largest provider of scholarships of any community foundation in California. The mission of the National Rainbow College Fund is to lessen the financial burden for young people who identify as LGBTQ+ or who are grappling with the secrecy of remaining in the closet. The groundbreaking fund addresses the unique challenges LGBTQ+ students face such as social acceptance, mental health issues and family rejection that can hinder their ability to afford college that in turn impacts long-term economic earning power. “Speaking from personal experience, I know that many young people struggle with the fear of being outed or coming out. It can be overwhelming. Like many young people, I did everything possible to hide who I was because I feared being kicked out of my home and my family, as well as being cut off financially and emotionally,” said Mark Stuart, President and CEO of San Diego Foundation. “Every LGBTQ+ person should have the means to realize their educational dreams, regardless of the public nature of their sexual and gender identity.” The $2,500 award per selected student may be used for tuition, books, fees, room and board and other educational expenses. It does not need to be repaid. The application period is from January 15, 2025 – March 5, 2025. San Diego Foundation will make students’ privacy the highest priority during the application process. All information submitted to the application portal will be confidential. Setting the precedent in California, San Diego Foundation’s vision is for the fund to grow to be a national source of financial aid for LGBTQ+ students to attend the technical school, college or university of their choosing. To apply, a student who identifies as LGBTQ+ whether publicly or privately must be a high school senior; an incoming or current college or university student; or an adult re-entry student. Applicants need to have lived in California for at least one year and must demonstrate financial need by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), the California DREAM Act Application or the Federal Student Aid Estimator Tool. Students must plan to enroll in at least 6 units in an accredited public or nonprofit community college; four-year university or trade/vocational school anywhere within the United States. For more details about eligibility and selection criteria, please visit rainbowcollegefund.org/scholarship-program/. The need for this scholarship is well-documented. According to a survey conducted by Student Loan Hero, LGBTQ+ students face significant barriers in paying for their education. Families may not financially support their children, leading LGBTQ+ students to turn to loans to finance their schooling. LGBTQ+ borrowers had a higher debt burden on average, with $16,000 more than their cisgender/heterosexual peers: 60% of LGBTQ+ student loan borrowers regret taking out student loans; 28% feel that they can’t manage their student loan payments and more than 53% reported earning less than $50,000 per year. For every $1,000 scholarship a student receives, they are 5% more likely to complete their education. Privacy remains a major concern. A 2022 study from the Williams Institute found that LGBTQ+ students are four times more likely than non-LGBTQ+ students to choose college in a state with a more welcoming climate and to live away from family; 60% of white LGBTQ+ students are not out to staff/faculty and less than 40% of LGBTQ+ students of color are out to staff/faculty. Community colleges have even higher rates of keeping sexual identity private: more than 70% white LGBTQ+ students and 65% LGBTQ+ students of color are not out. LGBTQ+ rights have been under increased attack in general, but also transgender and gender diverse communities in particular. This political landscape is the backdrop by which teenagers are navigating their identities while emerging into adulthood. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published a study documenting that approximately 3.3% of high school students identify as transgender and another 2.2% are questioning their gender identity. Transgender and gender-questioning teenagers reported alarmingly higher rates of bullying at school, persistent sadness and suicidal thoughts and behavior. About one in four transgender students said they had attempted suicide in the past year, compared with 11% of cisgender girls and 5% of cisgender boys. * * * About National Rainbow College Fund National Rainbow College Fund (NRCF) is the first scholarship designed to exclusively support LGBTQ+ students pursuing their ambitions for higher education regardless of the public nature of the student’s sexual and gender identity.

Intus Care to Host Virtual Roundtable on “PACE & The Future of Healthcare Data Interoperability”

Intus Care

Intus Care, a technology leader in the PACE market, will host a virtual conversation on “PACE and the Future of Healthcare Data Interoperability” with prominent guests within healthcare and the PACE (Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) community. Intus Care Cofounder and CEO Robbie Felton will moderate a discussion among Shawn Bloom, CEO and president of the National PACE Association (NPA); Dr. David Feinberg, Chairman of Oracle Health (formerly CEO of Cerner); and Stephanie Rock, Vice President of Product at Intus Care. The discussion will center around healthcare system interoperability, the importance of interoperability, and the current interoperability challenges that remain. In particular, the conversation will focus around: What can the PACE community learn from modern interoperability standards by the broader value-based care community? Why does PACE need an interoperable and modular technology strategy as the model expands? The hour virtual roundtable is scheduled for Thursday, November 14 at 1 p.m. ET. Anyone interested in interoperability, healthcare, and PACE is invited to listen to the discussion. Registration is open now. PACE is a “comprehensive, fully integrated, provider-based health plan for the frailest and costliest members of our society – those who require a nursing home level of care,” according to the National PACE Association. The goal, however, is to provide care that allows those enrolled to continue living at home and in their communities. Nationally, 95% of participants continue to live at home. The model is now considered the gold standard for seniors with complex care needs. According to the NPA, there are currently 178 PACE programs serving more than 78,500 participants in 33 states and the District of Columbia. As the U.S. population ages – adults 65 years or older will increase 30%, from 63 million to 82 million, accounting for nearly one-quarter of the U.S. population by 2050 – the need for PACE to expand will only increase. To scale effectively, PACE organizations need technology that meets their needs, including a unified documentation system that integrates and shares data securely and seamlessly. "The future of interoperability in PACE lies in seamless data sharing across care teams, empowering providers to deliver truly coordinated, patient-centered care," said Felton. "While progress has been made, there are still regulatory and technological hurdles for this to be truly realized for PACE organizations, but its realization will unlock unprecedented value and transform how we care for our aging population. I look forward to unpacking this with our esteemed guests for the virtual fireside chat." Registration for the virtual roundtable is open now. A recording will be available following the event for individuals unable to attend live. About Intus Care Intus Care creates technology and services for PACE and value-based care organizations to achieve operational efficiency and better clinical and financial outcomes. Intus Care currently works with over 60 PACE programs across 16 states. Visit our website to learn more at intuscare.com.

Global MMA Superstar Conor McGregor Set To Drive Alta Global Group Growth After Ambassador Deal

RazorPitch MMA

Alta Global Group (NYSE:MMA), the premiere tech company on a mission to convert 640 million loyal combat sports fans to participants, has been gaining widespread attention from investors as it appears well positioned for major growth. In what is yet another critical milestone for the company, Alta Global Group (NYSE American: MMA) announced a new brand ambassadorship deal with Conor McGregor, the iconic former UFC superstar. This new deal incentivizes McGregor to assist Alta in any way possible and will potentially see him increase his stake in the company since he will get additional bonus shares as MMA’s stock price moves higher all the way to $20 per share. McGregor, who is known for his unparalleled reach and influence, boasting over 70 million followers across X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and Facebook, will leverage his extensive fan base to promote Alta's innovative products and programs. As a former UFC Featherweight and Lightweight Champion, the first to hold titles in two weight classes simultaneously, and a former Cage Warriors Featherweight and Lightweight Champion, McGregor's achievements have cemented his status as the biggest pay-per-view draw in MMA history. His fights have consistently broken records, with his bout against Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 229 drawing 2.4 million buys and his boxing debut against Floyd Mayweather Jr. garnering over 5.3 million buys illustrating his massive appeal to fans of combat sports. This ties in well with the fact that Alta Global Group (NYSE:MMA) has already amassed its own substantial user base and strong user engagement of about 15 million monthly views and over 5 million social media users. It also currently ranks in the top 3 for ‘MMA’ in global search results. In addition to that, McGregor's contribution to popularizing MMA and the UFC on a global scale is undeniable considering that in 2021 Forbes recognized him as the world's highest-paid athlete, earning $180 million. Nick Langton, Founder and CEO of Alta, remarked, "Conor McGregor’s involvement is a game-changer for Alta Global Group. His legacy and influence in the world of MMA are unmatched. We are honored and thrilled to have his endorsement and support, which will be instrumental in revolutionizing the martial arts and combat sports landscape." That is why McGregor's role will be pivotal in the growth of Alta’s Warrior Training Program and the promotion of Hype, Alta’s all-in-one marketing platform tailored for gyms, coaches, and combat sport participants. He will also play a significant part in promoting Alta’s newly established partnership with UFC Gyms, which will integrate the Warrior Training Program across their network of over 150 gyms worldwide. For context, Hype is like a mini-website builder, a CRM, and a payments processor, all built into one that you can operate from your smartphone. What this platform basically does is that it allows business owners to take their followers from social media apps and funnel them into a platform with more freedom and tools to communicate and monetize without being under the mercy of algorithms. Now add this to the fact that Alta has already built a huge database of over 9000 professional and amateur athlete profiles, 5645+ potential content creator profiles, and 3500+ tutorial libraries. That means that Alta Global Group (NYSE:MMA) is well positioned to provide marketing content, training syllabuses for gyms and coaches, and connect the underlying fans to an opportunity to train either online or inside a gym at one of the company’s gym partners globally. This is a win-win deal for everyone in the ecosystem, as fans interested in participating in the sport can be matched up with a coach and gym easily. Another important thing for investors to note is that Alta is monetizing in a way that the UFC or other large professional promotions don't presently do, which is through fan base participation and could make it a very attractive company in the eyes of these much larger companies in the future. More recently, the company announced that it had sealed a partnership deal with UFC Gym, including their Warrior Training program, which could bring in revenue of at least $7 million annually, illustrating just how substantial this opportunity is. Alta’s market capitalization is about $40 million right now, but there's plenty of room for upside, especially now that McGregor has become the company’s official ambassador based on the kind of social media reach he has. Moreover, according to a recent TechSci Research report, the global combat sports market is set for explosive growth driven by rising global interest in fitness and the widespread adoption of combat sports as a means of physical exercise as consumers realize the health benefits and mental discipline associated with these activities. This market is set to experience robust growth, growing from $8.7 billion in 2023 to about $12.6 billion by 2029, representing a CAGR of 6.5%. Disclaimers: RazorPitch Inc.

FTN Network Premiers NBA Proprietary Data for Customers for 2024 Season

FTN Network

FTN Network, a company built for delivering affordable, customizable and highly detailed sports data for media companies, bettors, fantasy sports and DFS, announced today that it will premier NBA data on its platform of charted, proprietary information. Starting with the 2024–25 season, NBA data will be available to all FTN Data customers, and to FTN Fantasy subscribers at a later date. FTN will track 19 distinct data points aimed at offering unique context into player evaluations, covering everything from fundamental offensive and defensive sets to intricate and advanced analytics. The collected data will place an emphasis on the impact of the defensive side of the ball. With the last 4 league-MVP awards going to true Centers (Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid), FTN will equip data subscribers with the resources necessary to highlight the extensive impact some of the league’s most dominant players have on neutralizing opposing offensive superstars. The advanced metrics will provide insights into ball screen coverages, post-defense, off-ball defensive actions, contested shot data and contested rebound data, going deeper than simply tracking who secures a rebound and where. "We want to revolutionize the way individuals analyze and engage with the sport of basketball. This includes enhancing the experience from both a betting and fantasy perspective, as well as for regular viewers of the game down the line. Our objective with the charting database is to drive innovation for sports analytics,” said Frank Brank, Chief Data Officer at FTN. “We want to offer services and insights that may go unnoticed by other platforms. Users will have intel like a defensive scout, including how teams defend against specific offensive formations, as well as offensive efficiency metrics that highlight the effectiveness of these defensive strategies.” Building on its extensive NFL data and unique expertise with its DVOA/DYAR metrics, FTN’s addition of NBA analytics will help enhance customers’ viewership experience and boost the entertainment value of the sport. The following data points will be collected by FTN for its charting database: possession type, play type, shot type, defensive alignment, after time-out situations, short clock situations, ball screen defensive coverages, screen locations, screen participants, off-ball action coverages, post defense, post play participants, deflections, potential assists, shot contest types, shot contest hands, contests by player, rebound locations, and rebound contests. “The launch of our NBA data for the upcoming season further establishes FTN as the one stop shop for all things fantasy, betting and fan engagement,” said Perry Gershon, chief executive officer at FTN. “It allows users to go beyond the box score in this new era of the game, making it a truly innovate tool in the sports data industry.” This additional data offering comes at a time when FTN is experiencing impressive growth. Total subscription revenue (monthly and annual combined) grew 16 percent for the first three quarters of 2024 compared to the same period last year. The main driver of that growth is its fantasy football product on ftnfantasy.com, which historically sells best between July and September. For that specific 3-month period, FTN’s subscription revenue grew 22 percent compared to 2023. FTN Data revenue also grew substantially (by 211% over the same period last year), driven by an increased visibility of the product. About FTN Network FTN Network is a sports data B2B and fantasy sports and betting media B2C company. Founded in 2020, FTN gives the fantasy and sports betting community an edge through its own unique ecosystem, providing customizable tools that turn raw data into true insights while also offering expert analysis and content to help users make the best decision possible.
