Milton, GA, August 09, 2023 – Fulton Books author Micah Ingram, a young author who has been writing stories since his childhood, has completed his most recent book, “Fishbait & Applesauce: Grandma’s Stories”: a delightful tale that follows two brothers who turn a nice outing into a competition, and learn a valuable lesson along the way.
From a young age, Micah always had a passion for storytelling, and even read the stories he wrote to his classmates during school. Micah has always been creative and has always wanted to create and build the worlds that he envisioned. The stories that Micah loves the most, the ones that inspire him, were those that had a purpose, told a lesson, and had compelling characters. That’s what Micah hopes to bring to life within his stories.
“Fishbait and Applesauce are two very close brothers who are always playing around and love being adventurous,” writes Micah. “In this story, they are taken to the park by their inspirational grandmother only to end up competing with each other to see who can catch the most fish. Fishbait, nicknamed for his fishing prowess and love for the outdoors, is the better one when it comes to fishing and wins, easily making Applesauce jealous. Applesauce then, with the help of their grandma, competes once more against Fishbait with a magic fishing rod that she had given him in a battle for the ages, learning a lesson along the way.”
Published by Fulton Books, Micah Ingram’s book will help to teach young readers that it’s okay to lose, and that failure can present an opportunity to learn and grow. With vibrant artwork and charming characters that help bring Micah’s tale to life, “Fishbait & Applesauce: Grandma’s Stories” is the perfect story to help readers of all ages learn the importance of perseverance, and to never give up in the face of a challenge.

RoofPRO Joins The Complete Player Charity and Community Associations Institute for an Interactive Youth Camp Field Trip Event in Severn, MD
Severn, MD, August 09, 2023 — RoofPRO is proud to announce its participation in a unique and educational youth camp field trip event organized by The Complete Player Charity and Community Associations Institute. The event, taking place at The Church at Severn Run in Severn, MD, aims to empower children from low and moderate income families by teaching them about the abundance of opportunities in the trades industry. Through engaging role-play training and outreach activities, the event seeks to inspire the next generation of skilled professionals.
The event revolves around a captivating scenario, where a student Board and Association meeting unfolds. As part of the role-play, the students actively participate in voicing their concerns as homeowners. They simulate a persistent leak into an upper-floor unit and a flooded backyard, raising challenges that require professional assistance.
The student Board proceeds to solicit Request for Proposals (RFPs) from two contractors: Gary from AMG and Kelly Rae from RoofPRO. To make the experience more immersive, Gary and Kelly lead their groups of children in developing their respective proposals. This process involves various mathematical opportunities, including measurements, labor and materials estimations, fostering a hands-on learning environment.
Kelly Rae brings an impressive roof/gutter mockup, enabling the children to explore the intricacies of roofing and guttering systems. During the exercise, it is discovered that the roof leak has led to mold issues, requiring remediation. Enter Beth, who joins the scene to provide insight into the mold remediation process.
While the three groups of student “contractors” are busy developing their proposals, another character, Michelle, enters to present budget scenarios. The Board is tasked with discussing and voting for spending projects involving capital improvements and maintenance, providing real-life experience of making important financial decisions.
The highlight of the event is when the three contractor groups return to present their proposals to the Board/Association. The ensuing discussions foster collaborative problem-solving, allowing the young participants to devise solutions for both problems. The event encourages the students to consider loan or special assessment scenarios to finance the repairs, while also promoting collaboration among the contractors.
“We are thrilled to be part of this exceptional event organized by The Complete Player Charity and Community Associations Institute,” said Kelly Rae, representative of RoofPRO. “At RoofPRO, we believe in fostering a spirit of innovation and excellence in the trades industry. This youth camp field trip event provides an exciting platform for children to explore the world of trades, enabling them to see the limitless possibilities that lie ahead.”
The event builds upon the success of previous years’ scenarios while incorporating engaging math scenarios, including take-offs, materials/labor estimations for the bids, and budget considerations. The seamless flow of activities allows the students to start together, break into smaller groups for individual tasks led by experienced professionals, and then reconvene for plenary sessions where RFPs and solutions are discussed.
RoofPRO looks forward to contributing to the success of this inspiring event and empowering the young minds to embrace the world of trades with enthusiasm and determination.

Philanthropist Venisha Arnold Founder of The Nonprofit Organization Persistence is The Key Continues to Inspire & Giveback
Austin, TX, August 09, 2023-– Philanthropist & Speaker Venisha Arnold (she is a lawyer by profession) recently launched The Arnold Foundation/Henry’s Place a scholarship fund in memoriam to her late Father who was also a lawyer. The first scholarships will be given away in the Fall of 2023. Thereafter scholarships will be given away every academic semester.
Since 2017, Venisha continues her efforts to inspire others with the launch of The Arnold Foundation/Henry’s Place and her podcast aptly named after her first philanthropic venture “Persistence is The Key! The Podcast” which debuted in late 2020 after the election of our first woman Vice-President.
Thus, with everything occurring in the world from a global pandemic to social injustice, Venisha wants people to continue to have hope and never give up on their goals and dreams.
“For example the election of our first woman Vice-President Kamala Harris,” Venisha said. “That is such an amazing feat and this occurred right in the middle of a pandemic, on my podcast I have interviewed some very inspiring women some were candidates for the US Senate & the US Congress and still are! They are graduates of Harvard Law and Northwestern Law. Another guest we attended the same law school but at different times she graduated number 3 in her class! So my goal with The Arnold Foundation is to assist and inspire the next generation of lawyers.”
Venisha says she is just getting started and has so much more she wants to do regarding her philanthropic causes.
“I have so many ideas I mean I could truly be a full-time philanthropist but other things have to fall in place first but for now I do what I can with the time I have and yes I am having fun doing this giving back brings me joy.”
At the end of the day, Venisha wants to leave people with a message of courage, hope, inspiration and of course persistence. “Look, you only have one life, so live it to the fullest, get everything you want in life, the life I live today is the life I planned as I always say Never Settle Persistence is The Key!”

The Apprentice Token – A New Alternative Investment Vehicle
New York, NY, August 09, 2023 — Agile Apprenticeships by The Bee2Bee Network announces the launch of The Apprentice Token & Blockchain Workforce Development Platform.
The Apprentice Token is the first comprehensive workforce development funding tool and platform that utilizes AI and Blockchain technologies, which enables employers and educators to work together to develop highly-skilled workers and place the right people in the right jobs. Although currently funded by the Department of Labor, traditional workforce training programs are falling short because they lack a working understanding of the needs of the rapidly evolving technology industry and the practical know-how to efficiently pivot to provide customized and comprehensive solutions for today’s technology-focused workforce.
The management consulting firm McKinsey reports that 43% of enterprises are experiencing skill gaps. What’s more, the tech talent shortage could result in annual revenue losses of up to $162 billion by 2030, stalling innovation and progress. Tech-driven companies pay higher wages than those in other sectors, but the actual numbers vary based on a candidate’s work experience, skills, and location.
Like a major league scout, Agile Apprenticeships has a growing waiting list across nine states comprised of promising and talented apprentices with diverse experiences and backgrounds. For example, Kendal, a Howard University undergraduate student and program ambassador who started in the program during her freshman year, and Anny, a young mother of two from the Dominican Republic, currently works as a receptionist with a major healthcare company and aims to become a software engineer. Anny and Kendal will both successfully reach their career goals while earning a salary, college credit and receiving one-on-one career mentorship as they explore, discover and participate in innovative projects and emerging technologies such as AI, Blockchain, Augmented Reality, VR, Telehealth, Retail, 3D Digital Twin Technologies, Cybersecurity, Real Estate, AI/Construction, Architecture, Data Science, Virtual E-Commerce, Social Media, Entertainment, Digital Marketing, Agile Project Management, Custom App Development, W3 Web Development and more.
According to Barbara Corcoran with Shark Tank, “[Rich kids have] had the right jobs because they had the right contacts, so they had the right apprenticeships in different ‘right companies’ in their summer months when they are teenagers. They get the right introductions. Poor kids are usually waiting tables and scrapping, dealing with customers, spilling coffee, and getting shouted at… [Rich kids] know all about business as an observer but they don’t know business as a player. Whereas poor kids tend to have had hardships. They’ve had to be a player earlier.” The Apprentice Token is designed to bridge these unique experiential and socioeconomic gaps while building a level playing field for all to succeed in today’s new world of work.
Initially launched in 2022, The Apprentice Token is now deployed on both Ethereum and Binance blockchains (BEP20 and ERC20), and is exclusively available to institutional investors for Pre-ICO sales starting at $10,000 increments, including greater denominations, at lifestylesin360.com. Unlike traditional tokens, The Apprentice Token is backed by a hedge fund portfolio of patent-pending AI/VR/AR and Virtual E-Commerce Projects in key industries such as Luxury Real Estate, Art, Retail, Fintech, Entertainment, Telehealth, and more. Signature portfolio projects include the country’s first Metaverse Virtual Shopping Mall Project, which featured Luxury Real Estate and Retail Brands such as Whole Foods Market.
Founded in 2011, the immersive, four-year program by Agile Apprenticeships provides employers with a proven and scaleable framework to create a reliable, cost-effective, diverse talent pipeline for today’s in-demand tech-based positions. Unlike traditional internships, all Agile Apprentices are committed to a challenging curriculum and receive in-demand industry certifications requiring hands-on experience during their apprenticeship tenure. A formal diploma from the Department of Labor also verifies their employment, hands-on project experience, and above entry-level skillsets.
