IotaComm® Sponsors Healthy Green Schools & Colleges Program to Advance Healthier, Smarter School Environments Nationwide

IotaComm

IotaComm, Inc. ("IotaComm"), a next-generation wireless communications and Internet of Things (IoT) solution provider, is proud to announce its official sponsorship of the Healthy Green Schools & Colleges (HGSC) program. As a sponsor, IotaComm is supporting the nationwide effort to transform K–12 and higher education facilities into cleaner, safer, and more sustainable environments for students and staff—no matter the zip code. HGSC, a program of the Healthy Schools Campaign, is designed to help school facility professionals identify low- and no-cost strategies to improve indoor air quality (IAQ), sustainability, and operational efficiency. Developed in collaboration with school facilities experts, the program equips institutions with the tools to address workforce development, resource constraints, and long-standing environmental health disparities, especially in historically underfunded communities. “This partnership isn’t just about measuring air quality—it’s about making it meaningful,” said Charlie Thiel, Chief Revenue Officer at IotaComm. “Where others offer a snapshot, we provide the full movie. Our Delphi360™ platform collects and transforms data into operational intelligence that district leaders can use to help their schools not just meet standards, but strategically improve environments where students learn and teachers work.” IotaComm’s Delphi360™ platform uses secure connectivity and battery-powered LoRaWAN® sensors to collect key IAQ parameters—including carbon dioxide (CO₂), particulate matter (PM2.5, PM10), temperature, humidity, and VOCs—every 30 minutes. This data is then transformed into actionable insights that empower district leaders, superintendents, and facility teams to make smarter, evidence-based decisions. These insights are especially valuable in helping schools meet HGSC certification requirements, such as CO₂ monitoring across 100% of occupied spaces. “The highest value of IAQ data is in trend analysis—not just static readings,” Thiel added. “Delphi360 helps districts identify issues before they escalate and demonstrates measurable improvements that strengthen transparency with their communities.” A Data-Driven Path to Healthier Schools HGSC’s three-step improvement model—Assess, Commit, Improve—guides institutions at every stage of their sustainability journey: Assess: Schools complete a free online self-assessment to evaluate their current performance and score themselves against the HGSC standard. Commit: Schools officially join the program and gain access to training, peer support, and best-practice guidebooks. Improve: Schools implement changes at their own pace, with expert guidance to address root causes, track progress, and eventually achieve certification status. “Unhealthy indoor air, poor ventilation, and harmful chemicals from outdated maintenance practices put students and educators at risk and impact learning outcomes,” said Sara Porter, Program Director of Healthy Green Schools & Colleges and Vice President of External Affairs at Healthy Schools Campaign. “These challenges are most acute in schools serving low-income communities and students of color. HGSC is designed to remove systemic barriers and create healthier learning environments for all.” “IotaComm’s data-driven approach enhances our program by turning indoor air quality goals into everyday operational improvements,” Porter added. “It’s this kind of practical innovation that helps schools move from intention to impact.” Supporting a Mission of Equity, Transparency, and Impact For IotaComm, this sponsorship represents a natural extension of its mission to deliver scalable, sustainable technology that bridges the gap between data, equity, and action in public infrastructure. We are not just supporting an initiative – we’re helping redefine what it means to create safe, equitable learning environments in the 21 st century. The partnership also aligns with IotaComm’s active crowdfunding campaign, which invites everyday investors to fuel the company’s growth and mission of making smart, healthy infrastructure accessible to every community.

Self-Therapy is Free!

The Stuttering Foundation

To mark National Stuttering Awareness Week (May 12-18), our classic book, Self-Therapy for the Stutterer, is now available as a 65-minute film from The Stuttering Foundation ( StutteringHelp.org ). It is available free to everyone through the end of National Stuttering Awareness Week by visiting our streaming video library at http://www.stutteringhelp.org/streaming and using the promotion code: NSAW25. Based on the timeless self-help book, now in its 11 th edition, by Stuttering Foundation Founder, Malcolm Fraser, this new video, Self-Therapy for Those Who Stutter, provides a powerful message to all who view it: If you stutter, you do not need to surrender helplessly to your speech difficulty because you can change the way you talk. There is no quick and easy way to tackle the problem, but with the right approach, self-therapy can be effective! Noted speech therapist, Dr. Charles Van Riper, praised this important guide and the concepts it explains: “There are always some who stutter who are unable to get professional help and others who do not seem to be able to profit from it. There are some who prefer to be their own therapist. Malcolm Fraser has provided guidance for those who must help themselves. Knowing well from his own experience as a stutterer the difficulties of self-therapy, he outlines a series of objectives and challenges that should serve as a map for the person who is lost in the dismal swamp of stuttering and wants to find a way out.” “While there are many differing opinions today about stuttering therapy, one thing is for sure, the tried and true techniques in this video have been effective for decades,” said Bob O’Brien, producer of the film. “When I first read Malcolm Fraser’s book, I was struck by how it reads like a self-training program. I knew then it needed to be made into a video, and that it would have a great impact on the audience.” Tom Sharstein, co-founder and chairman of the World Stuttering Network, demonstrated the techniques introduced by Malcom Fraser and shared his own personal experience with stuttering throughout the video. “Malcolm Fraser’s concepts are timeless, and this book changed my life,” said Sharstein. “When I was asked to be part of this project, I had to dig back many years to the dark ages of my stutter, and hopefully through this video, you'll be able to see my progression. The techniques laid out in this film will help you obtain smoother speech, if you want it.” A trusted source of information on stuttering, Stuttering Foundation materials are as close as your nearest public library. For decades, The Stuttering Foundation has made its books and videos available for free to public libraries across the country. Today, through the generosity of benefactors, more than 16,000 libraries shelve these materials. Public libraries can request the DVD free of charge by submitting the updated request form. About the Stuttering Foundation Malcolm Fraser, a successful businessman who struggled with stuttering, established the nonprofit Stuttering Foundation in 1947 and endowed it throughout his lifetime. The Foundation provides free online resources at StutteringHelp.org for people who stutter and their families, as well as support for research into the causes of stuttering.

Altcoin Rush Underway As Whales Identify Emerging Meme Coin As The Best Crypto To Buy Now

Cutoshi

As we move into 2025, the market trend is shifting towards utility tokens, causing the demand for the utility memecoin Cutoshi (CUTO) to increase massively. The surge in demand can be attributed to the crypto whales that have increased their holdings in the emerging altcoin, as its hybrid nature ensures it is unaffected by market trends and offers sustained long-term growth. Cutoshi’s Unique Hybrid Approach Cutoshi is an emerging ERC-20 altcoin that acts as a utility token and meme coin hybrid. It merges the best characteristics of both sectors to provide members with a wholesome meme community and a sophisticated DeFi ecosystem that offers real-world utility, thus appealing to both types of crypto enthusiasts. The meme coin part of Cutoshi is based on the traditional Chinese Lucky Cat, which Asian people decorate in their homes. According to Chinese and Japanese folklore, the cat holds lucky powers and blesses its owners with good fortune. Cutoshi aims to amplify this and make it accessible on a global level. Thus, to spread prosperity worldwide and bless everyone with good luck, Cutoshi has tokenized the cat and brought its powers to the blockchain as its native token, CUTO. Those who hold the token will receive good fortune and abundance in their digital assets and have thriving portfolios. Coming to the DeFi aspect, Cutoshi walks in the steps paved for Bitcoin by Satoshi Nakamoto and aims to create a democratized and sustainable decentralized economy. It promotes Nakamoto’s ideals of privacy and monetary freedom and spreads his teachings through its growing viral meme community. How Cutoshi Is Transforming DeFi With Its memeFi Ecosystem The Cutoshi ecosystem comprises various fun elements and practical components essential for participating in decentralized finance. It serves as a one-stop solution for users' investment needs. Cutoshi wants to boost the mass adoption of DeFi, so it is establishing a learning academy on its platform. In the Cutoshi Academy, community members can access learning materials and courses designed to teach complex Web3 and DeFi concepts in an engaging and easily understandable way. Cutoshi is bridging the knowledge gap for crypto newcomers through this academy to help them adapt and transition smoothly into the decentralized economy. It aims to make the knowledge accessible to all, thus keeping the learning materials free to all community members. Since it is a meme project, Cutoshi will mint limited edition NFTs and distribute them among early holders and challenge winners. A total of 8,000 NFTs with unique DeFi use cases will be made and divided into five classes based on rarity and utility. Members can hold them as a badge of honor and use them for benefits or swap them with other members for profits. Furthermore, Cutoshi plans to introduce a merch shop in the ecosystem, which will sell CUTO-themed everyday items such as hoodies, beanies, T-shirts, coffee mugs, phone cases, etc, so that devotees can keep the lucky cat’s spirit close and harness its powers. How To Earn With Token Farming The Cutoshi token farming is live on Zealy, where over 3,700 members have joined and are currently competing and harvesting CUTO. The farming mechanism has been designed to help boost community growth and token presale success. It includes completing fun quests and challenges to rise through the leaderboard. Members receive CUTO points upon finishing the quests, and those at the top of the leaderboard get more exciting rewards. Once the farming is over, participants can convert their accumulated points into CUTO tokens and receive them in their wallets. Moreover, those interested can also acquire CUTO from the token presale. The presale has raised over $1,500,000 and has progressed to stage four, where the price is $0.031 per CUTO. Crypto whales have been accumulating the token as it has provided steady returns thus far and will continue to generate similar returns throughout the presale. For more information on the Cutoshi (CUTO) Presale: https://cutoshi.com/ Join and become a community member: https://twitter.com/CutoshiToken https://t.me/cutoshi Welcome to Cutoshi, the revolutionary meme coin, DeFi hub and educational platform inspired by the Lucky Cat and Satoshi Nakamoto’s teachings. Traditionally, people put the Lucky Cat in their homes and businesses to maximize its lucky powers and bring them good fortune and wealth. Now Cutoshi the Lucky Cat is on the blockchain bringing luck, prosperity, and wealth to your digital assets. Cutoshi is creating a path to financial freedom, for those who choose to honor the power of the Lucky Cat. Supporting the principles of freedom, privacy, anonymity, and monetary empowerment for the masses. Cutoshi aims to bring the benefits of blockchain to everyone. The regulatory environment surrounding cryptocurrencies is evolving and varies across jurisdictions. It is your responsibility to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations in your country or region before engaging with Custoshi.

Dogecoin Whales Betting Big On New Viral Altcoin Cutoshi To Repeat Its 15000% Surge

Cutoshi

Dogecoin has been one of the biggest winners in the latest bull market. Thanks to surprising developments in the US, the token has regained a lot of its momentum. Still, Dogecoin whales are also looking for smaller tokens that can replicate the success of the biggest meme coin. That’s why many are betting big on a new Ethereum-based token. This innovative meme coin comes packed with utility, which helps it attract both memecoin and DeFi investors. Dogecoin Whales Make Big Moves The original meme coin Dogecoin (DOGE) has attracted significant whale attention. Following Donald Trump’s victory in November, Dogecoin’s biggest supporter, Elon Musk, holds the ear of soon-to-be the most powerful man on Earth. This has prompted whales to stock up on Doge. Notably, whales bought over $500 million in Doge tokens in just 48 hours last week. On January 3 alone, whales bought 1.08 billion Doge tokens, worth $350 million. This activity was fueled by social media enthusiasm for Doge. These rumors are coupled with ongoing speculation over Musk’s companies, like Tesla and X integrating Doge payments. For instance, rumors started circulating of Tesla accepting Dogecoin at its charging stations. While the official Tesla website makes no mention of this, the news caught on. Social media users and some crypto websites amplified this idea. What is more, there are ongoing speculations that X (formerly Twitter) will also enable payments in Dogecoin. While these speculations are so far unconfirmed, they are fueling the excitement over Dogecoin. This activity could propel Dogecoin to the key $0.5 level, and then beyond to $1. Still, it is highly unlikely that Dogecoin can match its gains when it rose upwards of 15000%. That’s why Dogecoin whales are diversifying their portfolios. In particular, many are looking at a new memeFi token Cutoshi. Can Cutoshi Repeat Dogecoin’s Early Success? For years, Dogecoin holders have been looking to repeat the token’s early success. Many meme coins came and went in that period. However, a new token stands out as a strong contender: Cutoshi (CUTO). Thanks to its blend of memecoin and utility, some Dogecoin whales believe it has a chance at repeating Dogecoin’s success. So far Dogecoin whales have poured substantial capital into Cutoshi. Notably, the token already raised over $1.5 million in presale investments, just months after its launch. What appeals to them is Cutoshi’s blend of utility and memes. For one, Cutoshi is both a meme coin and a DeFi token. It is inspired both by the Chinese Lucky Cat symbol as well as Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto. Like Satoshi, Cutoshi is all about digital freedom, decentralization and empowering users. Its upcoming multichain DEX will aim to make DeFi accessible to all kinds of users, not just the more technical ones. It will also feature key DeFi features, such as self-custody and low fees. With the DeFi space growing faster than ever, this is a major opportunity. With a focus on DeFi, Cutoshi hopes to attract meme coin traders into the world of decentralized technology. Whales are already understanding its potential, and regular users may soon follow. If this happens, Cutoshi is in a good position to replicate Dogecoin success.

Together, we will break barriers, transform lives and build futures.” Scholarships may be used for tuition, books, fees, room and board and other educational expenses. It does not need to be repaid.
