Transforming clothing donations into dual-purpose acts of charity and environmental stewardship.

Chicago, Illinois, 29th April 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, We Pickup Clothes, a leading textile collection and recycling organization serving the Chicago suburbs, is proud to announce a significant enhancement to its community service initiatives. Effective immediately, for every scheduled clothing pickup, the company will donate a meal to the Greater Chicago Food Depository. This initiative underscores We Pickup Clothes’ commitment to not only promoting sustainable practices but also addressing food insecurity within the local community.

We Pickup Clothes was founded with the mission to provide an easy and sustainable solution for discarding unwanted clothing. By offering free, contactless pickups throughout the Chicagoland area, the organization makes it simple for residents to give back. Instead of throwing away old clothes, shoes, toys, books, and small household items, donors can schedule a pickup and ensure that their items are put to good use. The collected items are either reused domestically or sent to underdeveloped countries, while unwearable clothing is recycled into materials for new products such as medical rags, rubber for tennis courts, or even new garments and shoes. This process keeps textiles out of landfills and extends the life cycle of everyday items, making donations not just an act of charity but a step toward environmental sustainability.

“Our company has always been about making it easy for people to give back in a way that benefits the environment and helps those in need,” said a We Pickup Clothes representative. “Now, by adding meal donations to the equation, we’re amplifying the impact of every pickup. When someone donates a bag of clothes, they’re not just keeping waste out of landfills—they’re also directly helping a family put food on the table. It’s a simple but powerful way to make a difference.”

The process for donors remains straightforward and user-friendly. Individuals gather their unwanted items—such as clothes, shoes, toys, books, and household goods—and place them into tied bags or boxes. They then schedule a pickup via the company’s online form, selecting a date that suits their convenience. On the chosen day, donors place their items outside by 8 a.m., and We Pickup Clothes handles the rest. This hassle-free approach encourages more community members to participate in charitable giving without disrupting their daily routines.

“We understand that people want to help, but their busy schedules don’t always allow them the time to drop off donations at a charity or thrift store,” the representative added. “That’s why we created this simple, free pickup service. You don’t have to go anywhere or do anything extra—we’ll come to you, pick up your donations, and ensure they go to the right place. Now, with the addition of meal donations, the impact of every pickup goes even further.”

We Pickup Clothes services a broad area within the Chicagoland region, including Cook, Dekalb, DuPage, Grundy, Kane, Kendall, Lake, McHenry, and Will counties. There are no limits or minimums on the number of items donors can contribute; whether it’s a single bag or an entire wardrobe, the organization welcomes all donations. The company works closely with charities, nonprofits, and textile recyclers to maximize the impact of every item collected. Usable clothing and household goods are redistributed to those in need, either locally or in underprivileged communities around the world. Items that are not suitable for reuse are responsibly recycled, ensuring that nothing goes to waste.

“Every single item we collect has value,” noted the company representative. “Even clothes that are torn or worn out can be repurposed into industrial materials. The goal is to make sure that as little as possible ends up in landfills. And now, we’re adding another layer of impact by making sure that every pickup also provides a meal for someone who needs it. It’s about finding ways to make our service as beneficial as possible, both for people and the planet.”

The collaboration with the Greater Chicago Food Depository highlights We Pickup Clothes’ dedication to holistic community support. The Food Depository serves as Cook County’s leading food bank, providing meals to individuals and families in need. By integrating meal donations into their service, We Pickup Clothes directly contributes to alleviating hunger in the region, reinforcing the interconnectedness of environmental sustainability and social responsibility.

“We know that food insecurity is a growing problem in many communities,” the representative said. “With the cost of living rising, more families are struggling to put meals on the table. By partnering with the Greater Chicago Food Depository, we’re ensuring that every pickup we make does more than just support environmental sustainability—it also provides immediate help to people who need it most. It’s an incredibly rewarding partnership.”

Donors interested in participating can easily schedule a pickup through the company’s website. The platform offers a straightforward scheduling system, allowing donors to select a convenient pickup date. Detailed instructions on how to prepare items for pickup are also provided, ensuring a smooth and efficient process for both donors and the collection team.

“We invite everyone in the Chicagoland area to join us in this initiative,” the representative concluded. “It takes just a few minutes to schedule a pickup, and that simple action can make a real difference. You’re keeping textiles out of landfills, supporting global communities, and feeding someone in need. It’s a collective effort, and we’re proud to be part of a community that cares.”

We Pickup Clothes remains steadfast in its mission to provide value to the community and the world. Through free and convenient pickups, support for worthy causes, and a commitment to environmental stewardship, the organization continues to exemplify how small, thoughtful actions can lead to profound, positive change.

May 15, 2025

By

Coinbase Wallet proudly announces the launch of “Whale Night,” a groundbreaking campaign designed to spotlight five innovative cryptocurrencies—AEKR, DGLH, CVTS, PODG, and CRKT—that embody the future of decentralized finance. As crypto markets mature, Coinbase Wallet is doubling down on community engagement and education through immersive events like Whale Night, offering traders, enthusiasts, and institutional players a deep dive into the next wave of high-potential tokens.

What Is Whale Night?

Coinbase Wallet’s Whale Night is a curated event series and digital showcase that celebrates innovation in blockchain ecosystems. This campaign is more than a marketing push—it’s a community-driven movement that introduces next-gen tokens with real utility, strong fundamentals, and scalable blockchain infrastructure.

Whale Night features:

Educational breakdowns of emerging tokens

Developer AMA sessions

Wallet-integrated quests for token discovery

Airdrop and staking rewards for early adopters

Whale-tier analytics and trend forecasting

The event shines a spotlight on five promising tokens that represent distinct utility categories—from AI finance and NFT ecosystems to DeFi automation and decentralized commerce.

Token Spotlight: The Five Crypto Innovators of Whale Night

1. AEKR — Smart Contracts with Cross-Chain Precision

AEKR introduces a robust infrastructure for cross-chain smart contracts, enabling seamless interoperability between major chains such as Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Solana. Designed for developers and enterprises, AEKR uses a modular approach to contract deployment, reducing gas fees and improving execution certainty. It’s a favorite among tech-savvy users seeking programmable flexibility and scalable DeFi tools.

2. DGLH — The AI Liquidity Engine

At the heart of DGLH is a sophisticated AI-powered liquidity mining protocol. It autonomously identifies arbitrage opportunities across multiple decentralized exchanges, optimizing user yield through dynamic pools. With an intuitive dashboard and real-time analytics, DGLH is making institutional-grade AI tools available to retail users—democratizing DeFi one node at a time.

3. CVTS — The NFT Validator with Real-World Utility

CVTS breaks through the NFT hype cycle with a validation protocol that links digital assets to verifiable real-world utility. Whether it’s digital memberships, IRL event access, or asset-backed NFTs, CVTS ensures transparency via chain-based verification layers. The platform also allows creators to build collections with embedded value and long-term utility—pushing NFTs beyond collectibles.

4. PODG — Commerce and Payments Reimagined

PODG is an all-in-one decentralized commerce and payment token, enabling frictionless peer-to-peer transactions across borders. With gas-free micropayments, merchant-side integration, and QR wallet sync, PODG is shaping the future of decentralized retail. Designed with mass adoption in mind, it supports multi-language UI and fiat onramps for emerging markets.

5. CRKT — A New Era of Tokenized Community Governance

CRKT pioneers community-centric governance with a DAO framework that actually works. Holders stake CRKT to gain voting rights over project development, treasury usage, and partner onboarding. With built-in delegation tools and anti-whale controls, it offers a fairer, more scalable model of on-chain decision-making.

Why These Tokens? Why Now?

Coinbase Wallet has always stood at the intersection of security, user control, and token innovation. As a self-custodial wallet used by millions, its mission is to surface the best crypto assets while preserving decentralization and user empowerment.

In selecting AEKR, DGLH, CVTS, PODG, and CRKT, Whale Night aligns with Coinbase Wallet’s broader thesis that crypto utility must evolve beyond speculation. These five tokens were chosen for:

Spiritual Business Guide ‘Zen and Stilettos’ Sells 100,000 Copies, Enters Publisher’s Top-10

Published

1 hour ago

on

May 15, 2025

By

BALI, Indonesia – 16/05/2025 – (SeaPRwire) – Elizaveta Babanova’s debut book, “Zen and Stilettos,” has sold approximately 100,000 copies since its release, securing a spot in her publisher’s top-10 bestsellers list in its first year.

Market analysts report that the book, which combines spiritual practices with practical business advice, has resonated with readers seeking to balance material success with personal development, particularly among professional women aged 30-45.

“When I achieved what once felt impossible—discovering my purpose—I forged a path forward,” Babanova said in a recent interview. “At its core is my mission: to help others rediscover their soul’s intention, reconnect deeply with their essence, and live a multifaceted, fulfilling life.”

Industry experts attribute the book’s commercial success to its practical approach to spirituality in an increasingly complex business environment. Nielsen BookScan data indicates a 23% growth in the personal development category over the past year, with spiritual business guides showing particular strength.

“I spent years searching for meaning,” said Babanova, who holds a background in finance before transitioning to writing and entrepreneurship. “It’s striking how much of the external world seems designed to disconnect us from our true selves.”

According to published reports, Babanova’s second book, “The Best Year of My Life,” has also achieved bestseller status. Both titles have maintained strong sales momentum through traditional retail and e-commerce platforms.

The author has leveraged her literary success to develop additional creative ventures, including the “Path of the Soul” music series, featuring music composed by Elizaveta and performed by Tchaikovsky and Gnesin Conservatories graduates. The concerts have been staged in Bali and the United Arab Emirates. This spring, “Path of the Soul” concerts will be performed in Damanhur, Italy and Moscow, Russia.

“Through books, music, broadcasts, and writing, I share my inner state,” Babanova explained. “Those who resonate with it form a natural, deep connection. There’s no greater joy than helping others unlock their divine potential—it fulfils my own purpose.”

Market analysts note that Babanova’s success represents a growing trend of merging traditional business principles with holistic approaches to personal development. Her ability to translate spiritual concepts into commercially viable products has positioned her as a notable figure.

In addition to her writing and music, Babanova operates Mystic Travel, which organises retreats to locations she describes as sacred “places of power.” “For most of my adult life I have been called to places on Earth that hold sacred codes,” Babanova said of the travel venture. “They’re like haute cuisine: you can follow a Michelin-starred chef’s recipe, but it’s never the same as tasting their dish in their kitchen. Similarly, documentaries and books can’t rival the visceral transformation of being in these spaces. Their energy expands and reshapes you,” said the world traveler, who has spent time in over 45 countries.

The diversified business model has proven effective, with revenue streams from book sales, concert tickets, retreat packages, and merchandise contributing to overall growth. Industry analysts project continued expansion as Babanova’s brand gains international recognition.

According to publisher announcements, her forthcoming book, “Dance in Abundance,” will be released in 2025 and will deeply explore universal codes of abundance, including ancient initiation traditions and their modern applications. An English-language edition is being prepared for international distribution.

“I have deeply immersed myself in the study of the ancient practice of initiation,” Babanova said regarding her upcoming work. “During one of my own, I received an insight about crafting a line of sacred artefacts. In ancient times, every significant initiation was marked by a special object—a symbol of transformation that amplified a person’s desired qualities.”

That insight led to developing a pearl jewellery brand that combines natural elements with spiritual symbolism, adding another dimension to her business portfolio.

According to social media analytics firm Socialblade, the author maintains active social media channels with over 500,000 combined followers across platforms, where she shares content related to personal growth and business development.

“Creative expression became my way of sharing profound inner states,” Babanova said. “Books, albums, and concerts flowed naturally from what I felt. Words alone couldn’t capture the depth of those emotions, so I turned to music and performance to convey unconditional love and the joy of existence.”

Market research firm BookScan reports that the success of “Zen and Stilettos” has helped drive a 15% increase in the spiritual business advice subcategory over the past fiscal year. The book has been particularly successful in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Yekaterinburg, with growing interest in international markets.

Literary critics have noted the book’s accessibility despite addressing complex philosophical concepts. The Russian Publishers Association recognised the work in its annual report as an example of effectively bridging practical business advice with personal development principles.

“Every project starts as a personal need—to experience and express life as something magnificent and eternal. Then it finds its audience, resonating with those meant to connect with it,” Babanova explained her creative process.

According to development partners, the author plans to launch a mobile application called “World of Abundance” later this year. The application will feature daily practices and support resources for her tribe.

Babanova’s rise in the publishing industry follows a broader trend of increasing consumer interest in integrated approaches to business success and personal fulfilment. Global market research firm Ipsos reports that 67% of professionals consider spiritual well-being important to their career development.
