SinglePoint (OTCQB: $SING): Direct Solar Signs MOU with SchollyME an International Sports Recruiting App Linked to High Schools Across the Nation



PHOENIX - November 4, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Direct Solar of America, a subsidiary of SinglePoint Inc. (OTCQB:SING) is pleased to announce it has signed a MOU with SchollyME. Direct Solar and SchollyME will collaborate on marketing Direct Solar through the schools that SchollyME is currently working with. The collaboration will put Direct Solar into the high school programs as a partner with SchollyME. This marketing strategy has already seen major success in driving new business for both companies.


SchollyME is based in California and is the fastest growing sports recruiting app for all 32 NCAA sports. SchollyME is a social media network, sports recruiting application for high school students to showcase their talents. The platform is the first social media network to be adopted in China. Learn more at SchollyME Sports Recruiting App Lands Billion Dollar Partnership in China From the release – "Kenneth Chang of the CECC and Ascent Sports is requiring all Esports gamers and athletes to pay an annual subscription fee to the use of SchollyME. The deal is estimated to be worth $1.4 billion within 24 months, thus making SchollyME the largest recruiting app in the country."

"We have seen major success in working with local high schools. We are currently working with 47 schools throughout Dallas, Houston, Fort Worth, Austin and are seeing amazing returns. We had our largest sales day to date Thursday closing seven deals for approximately $250,000. This partnership will give us access to high schools across the nation," states Pablo Diaz Founder, CEO Direct Solar.

This partnership will assist schools and their athletic programs through giving back a percentage of sales to help support and fund the local high school programs.

"We wanted to partner with the best solar company that can service all the schools we are currently involved with. SchollyME felt that we were more than just athletes. Our athletic community should care about the environment and give our younger generation a chance at a much longer life. Direct Solar and SchollyME is just a great partnership. We are both interested in the kid's futures!" states Mel Nunnery Founder of SchollyME.

Direct Solar and SchollyME are currently working to define which markets to launch and in what capacity to do so. Supporting the local communities and high schools' programs will be the driver for this successful partnership. Working with the school to establish a presence for education on solar and renewable energy and what it means for future generations of kids' is elemental in building longevity for both companies.

Direct Solar America via its Direct Solar Capital Division currently finances commercial solar projects for multiple private equity funds throughout North America. With the SchollyME and Direct Solar America partnership we will be collectively raising capital to continue funding projects throughout North America.

The solar market has been growing at its fastest pace in recent history. According to Solar Energy Industries Association, "The U.S. solar industry now has the largest pipeline of utility-scale solar projects in history, signaling promising future prospects for solar energy development." And with new legislation being presented the American Energy Opportunity Act which aims to make the process easier to obtain solar we expect to see continued growth in the sector.

Furthering the growth in the solar market, California has Incorporated solar into state codes & standards, including implementation of the Building Energy Efficiency Standards (BEES) for solar on new homes, developing BEES for commercial buildings with solar and storage, and preventing problematic siting & permitting requirements for utility-scale solar. The state continues to invest and grow the solar footprint. Which SchollyME being based in California this puts Direct Solar instantly in the largest solar market in the United States.

SchollyME has been working with thousands of students securing over 300 scholarships. The interactive app continues to develop and grow. SchollyME Inc. is an incredible sports social network which gives fans a front row seat in the lives of their favorite athletes and coaches while connecting with fans across the globe. For high school and jr. college athletes, SchollyME encourages you to market and promote yourself to college coaches across the globe. SchollyME empowers you to go from discovered to offered with one click.

Beyond just high schools there are numerous opportunities through partnering with SchollyME. Intros to international markets such as China where Pablo Diaz and Mel Nunnery recently traveled on an "invite only" trip to attend the Chinese Electronic Chamber of Commerce conference. Being one of the world's most prestigious conferences, there were many attendees that are highly interested in seeing the collaboration of Direct Solar and SchollyME succeed as there is much business to do outside of the U.S. and expanding into international markets.

Direct Solar and SchollyME determine the best-case scenario to develop and bring to market the first application to buy solar online or through a mobile device from inception to financing and closing. The future of residential solar will follow the path of other large purchases such as cars through Tesla and Carvana. Consumers are becoming comfortable making these large purchases online with the right education and trusted partner. Direct Solar of America will guide consumers through the entire process providing any assistance needed along the way through implementation of AI and customer service agents available to answer any questions. Overall the company looks to create and launch an industry changing way to purchase solar.

#Cleantech and #Climate Change #Podcast interview with Graciela Chichilnisky, Co-author of REVERSING CLIMATE CHANGE, @Fridays4future

#Cleantech and #Climate Change #Podcast interview with Graciela Chichilnisky, Co-author of REVERSING CLIMATE CHANGE, @Fridays4future

A Quest for a Carbon Revolution



Point Roberts WA, Delta BC, November 1, 2019 – Investorideas.com, a global news source and leading investor resource issues a special edition of its Cleantech and Climate Change podcast, talking to well-known thought leaders and management of publicly traded about today's problems and solutions for the future.

Today’s podcast features an exclusive interview with renowned economist Graciela Chichilnisky, co-author of the forthcoming book REVERSING CLIMATE CHANGE (World Scientific Publishing, December 2019).

Chichilnisky also talks about her company, Global Thermostat and its “direct air capture" technology that removes CO2 from the atmosphere; how it works and its current status. This technology could potentially play a role in a carbon revolution. Chichilnisky believes economics and climate change need to go hand-in-hand.

CO2 removed from the air will not only potentially reverse climate change but can become the main feedstock of economic growth, replacing petroleum.

A fair global economic playing field and a reversal of climate change; now that is a revolution!

ESG #Stocks - #Sustainability and Social Outreach a Priority for (OTCQB: $GFTX) (NASDAQ: $CTAS) (NYSE: $ARMK) (NASDAQ: $SGC)

ESG #Stocks - #Sustainability and Social Outreach a Priority for (OTCQB: $GFTX) (NASDAQ: $CTAS) (NYSE: $ARMK) (NASDAQ: $SGC)  

Point Roberts WA, Delta BC – September 24, 2019 - Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resources covering sports and retail stocks releases a sector snapshot reporting on the growing focus towards community & social outreach as well as sustainable practices in the textile and apparel industries.

In recent news, “Sustainability has gained a lot of traction in the textile industry over the last few years. Purchase decisions are no longer only made on the basis of fashion and comfort. Consumers are increasingly demanding more eco-friendly textiles.”

The article continued, “In contrast to paper, aluminum or steel, there is no credible recycling concept for the billions of tonnes of fast fashion items sold every year, mainly from non-biodegradable fibres. Each year about 60 million tonnes of new fibres are used to make garments, and no plausible concept exists on what to do with them when they are no longer needed. As a result, three-quarters of these products are disposed of in landfills or incineration plants. The textile industry is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions due to its production technologies and transportation. Studies calculating the sector’s CO2 emissions were first published only recently.”

With this growing attention towards sustainable solutions in the broader textile market, there is a need to create and implement meaningful solutions across a range of market segments. Global Fiber Technologies Inc. (OTCQB:GFTX) and Regent Apparel are announcing a collaboration to create a solution in the uniform apparel and napery segments.

Global Fiber Technologies, Inc. is a publicly traded fiber technology company founded in 2016 and headquartered in New Jersey that is dedicated to helping the world by utilizing their portfolio of technologies to create a cleaner, greener and more efficient world for the textile industry.


“This collaboration will utilize the strengths of each company to tailor a sustainability solution that meets the needs in the hospitality industry,” said Paul Serbiak, CEO of GFTX, who went on to say, “We look forward to collaborating to build products that deliver on the vision of a more sustainable future for this important market segment.”

Family-owned Regent Apparel has almost a century of experience manufacturing uniforms for businesses throughout the country. Their uniform take-back program will divert thousands of pounds of textiles from landfills and redirect them to GFTX to utilize their innovative technology to provide truly circular solutions to its customers.

“As a manufacturer of tangible products, we believe we have a responsibility to identify sustainable end-of-lifecycle product management tools,” said Alexis Miller Lettis, Regent’s VP & Director of Sustainability. “Our customers are increasingly looking for ways to operate more sustainably and we are very excited about GFTX’s ability to up-cycle our products.”

Chris Giordano, Global’s President and Chairman said: “We are extremely enthusiastic and eager to start working with a group like Regent. Regent has been a leader in the uniform space for over 95 years and has a reputation for producing very high-quality merchandise. They are also a very forward-thinking company dedicated to the idea of helping make the earth a better place by offering sustainable products to the corporate uniform market. Our proprietary technology will be important to the collaboration between us and to the industry in the years to come. We very much look forward to working with the Regent team to create co-branded sustainable products together.”

Earlier in the year, Cintas Corporation (NASDAQ: CTASannounced its collaboration with JW Marriott, part of Marriott International, Inc., which debut a new collection of wardrobe essentials across 51 of the brand's hotels worldwide. In addition to the new collection launch, JW Marriott properties in the US participated in a unique garment-recycling program managed by Cintas that responsibly reuses the brand's retired uniform line.

"We are excited about the new wardrobe launch as it will give JW Marriott associates the opportunity to mix and match garments that best fit their job function, personality and style preferences," said Mitzi Gaskins, Vice President and Global Brand Leader of JW Marriott. "JW Marriott's participation in Cintas' garment-recycling program aligns perfectly with our commitment to sustainable practices and will help support key eco-friendly brand-wide initiatives."

Approximately 10,000 associates were outfitted in the new collection, which includes Chef Works and Design Collective by Cintas garments. Prior to the debut, Cintas worked closely with JW Marriott to solicit hotel associate feedback regarding wardrobe design concepts to ensure that each piece was both functional and fashionable. Drawing inspiration from JW Marriott's brand color palette, the collection incorporated neutral greys with accents of a warm blush present throughout a variety of silhouettes including soft blouses, tailored suits and sophisticated printed dresses.

"Prints have been the cornerstone of many apparel collections over the last 18 months and continue to take center stage," said Jeff Marino, Creative Director at Cintas. "The floral print design that we created for the crepe dress and blouse is inspired by vintage Japanese watercolor paintings. It is the perfect representation of high fashion meets brand vision."

JW Marriott's garment recycling program, which took place through May 31, 2019 was available across 26 JW Marriott hotels based in the US. Through this sustainable program, hotels collected the retired uniforms in the boxes used to ship the new garments, each capable of holding 25-30 pounds of textiles. Once received by Cintas, the uniform provider worked with Leigh Fibers, Inc., a leader in managing textile waste, to shred garments and repurpose the remaining fibers for future use.

"Because JW Marriott associates provided insightful feedback about fit and functionality during the design process, they really helped us curate the best collection possible for the brand," said Jenn Pampenella, Global Account Manager, Cintas Corporation. "Cintas and Marriott also worked closely to bring our shared commitment to sustainability to the program. Our garment recycling program will allow JW Marriott's US hotels to divert textile waste from our nation's already strained landfills."

Not only are companies looking at recycling programs and sustainability but also at their social and community responsibilities. Recently, more than 12,000 Aramark (NYSE: ARMK) team members across the globe volunteered their time at 350 service projects in 15 countries during Aramark’s annual day of community service, Aramark Building Community Day (ABC Day). This year, Aramark joined the National Football League’s (NFL) Huddle for 100, a volunteer campaign that encourages fans to partner with them, the players and teams to donate 100 minutes of time, to help shape local communities for the next 100 years, with the goal of reaching 100 million minutes.

Aramark volunteers logged more than two million minutes in the day - lending their time, energy and expertise at service projects in the United States, Canada, China, Korea, Mexico, Czech Republic, Germany and the United Kingdom to bring health and wellness education and workforce readiness programs to community members.

“One day each year, we come together for our annual global day of service,” said Lynn B. McKee, Executive Vice President of Human Resources at Aramark. “Aramark Building Community Day demonstrates our year round commitment to enriching and nourishing lives. Today, thousands of our employees will volunteer together to build healthier communities and achieve our goal of creating long-lasting impact.”

“Aramark is the exclusive NFL retail merchandiser for special events and is the food, beverage, retail and facilities partner of 14 NFL teams, so we are especially excited this year to team up in Huddle for 100,” said Carl Mittleman, President of Aramark’s Sports & Entertainment business. “Today alone, our team members expect to volunteer millions of minutes in their local communities and we will continue to log our time throughout the rest of the year.”

Superior Group of Companies® (NASDAQ: SGC), who recently announced Michael Attinella, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer will be presenting at the Fall Investor Summit at the JW Marriott Essex House, New York on September 16, is one other company working towards better manufacturing practices.

Superior Group of Companies and its family of brands have had a long-standing commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives, which since 2011 includes partnering with the Salvadoran Foundation for Health and Human Development (FUSAL). Their program, “Libras de Amor” (translated: “Pounds of Love”), is focused on reducing malnutrition in children, and creating a self-sustaining environment for families in high-risk communities in El Salvador.

In the past 15 years, SGC has also donated over 1.5 million articles of clothing to various foundations and missions all over the world, including FUSAL, Provision International, and other organizations. In 2017 alone, working alongside various organizations, Superior Group of Companies and its divisions have donated over 60,350 garments to areas throughout Central America and the Caribbean. A core portion of those garments are used in sewing training centers, which take the adult-sized garments and cut them down into clothing for school age children.

In response to the devastation in Houston caused by Hurricane Harvey, SGC opened their distribution center in Eudora, AR as a clothing donation drop-off site. In total, the Company successfully donated over 25,000 garments to the victims of the hurricane in Houston and its surrounding areas.

Not only is sustainability gaining traction in North America, but also globally as one article stated. “Sustainability has also slowly begun to gain in importance in other parts of the world, especially Asia. This is important because 2018 was a milestone. For the first time in history, more than half of apparel and footwear sales were generated outside of Europe and North America. If we want to make the textile industry a greener one, we need to support sustainability, especially in emerging markets across Asia-Pacific, Latin America and other regions.”

As we see this initiative grow globally, companies working on new garment recycling programs and textile reusability may have the chance to gain consumer favoritism as awareness and the demand for “green clothing” increases.
