Announcing the Campaign to Fund the My Driving Pal

A unique, easily portable product that allows easy tracking of any vehicle or individual

San Ramon, CA -- May 12, 2015 -- The creators of My Driving Pal (MDP), a unique new product designed to easily track vehicles, individuals, or wayward children, proudly announces the campaign to fund it’s continuing development and marketing!

Have you ever wished there was a product that could monitor, issue alerts, and track your vehicle, bike or child or any other moving asset,  but ONLY when they move out of range or are in your absence?

Introducing the My Driving Pal! The MDP Device and App communicate with each other via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). When the MDP Device and a smartphone using the MDP app are within range (15 meters) of each other, the MDP App tracks the asset and MDP Device goes into idle mode. In order to protect the user's privacy, all tracking data remains locally on the phone and is not transmitted to any Backend Server. However, when the phone is out of range and yet the object that is carrying the MDP Device is moving, the MDP Device turns on its built-in GNSS (GPS) receiver and Cellular Modem, tracks the asset and immediately notifies the user on his/her phone via remote push notification.

Not only for tracking individuals or vehicles, the  MDP App also allows you to manually record your walking, running, biking, or driving trips. It shows the route on a map and updates the  distance and duration of the trip in real-time in both US (foot, mile) and Metric (meter, kilometer) units.

The team creating MDP is seeking $50,000 to fund the follow tasks:

●     Hardware Development and Refinement

●     Firmware Refinement

●     Develop Waterproof Enclosure (case) for MDP Devices

●     Power Consumption Optimization

●     Certifications - FCC, CE, PTCRB

“Roughly Speaking: Voices From The Soup Kitchen” Tells Stories of Homeless People

Top-Tier Play Will Use Material Obtained From Service Interviews with Homeless

New York, New York:  May 11,  2015 –  “Roughly Speaking: Voices From The Soup Kitchen,” is a forthcoming investigative theater piece which captures the many hues and layers of the life of those who’ve fallen into homelessness.

The Platform Group, an Off-Broadway Theater Company with calls to action embedded in their numerous high caliber productions, are using their wealth of production experience to create this awareness-raising and insightful play which will creatively depict the varied experiences of the homeless. The truth-telling performances were culled from actual homeless individuals who entrusted their stories into the hands of playwright volunteers during feeding mission encounters. In more ways than one, working in the soup kitchen gave these select volunteers a depth of perspective. Through the platform of service-related engagement, material for this performance emerged.

The volunteers gathered data from their shared encounters at St. Francis Xavier Mission’s Welcome Table, which serves between 900-1600 hot meals weekly.

There is a raw and poignant truth about the homeless. They each have a story detailing how they got where they are. A change of fortune may have landed them in this situation.

There are stories within stories. In New York City alone, records reveal that 60,000 people are homeless on a daily basis. In this populous city, as well as other points on the globe, the homeless often become invisible to some, an inconvenient reality to others and a source of embarrassment to others still.

The success of this campaign will allow this project to develop to its fullest potential. The productions will be used to elevate the awareness about homelessness and provide opportunities for a broad swath of the population to participate in combating homelessness.
