NEW YORK – August 24, 2022 – (Newswire.com)
Three years ago, producers Monty Hobbs and Matthieu Chazareix met while filming an upcoming docu-series, interviewing people across the country during the pandemic. Today, they are announcing their new slate of content under the newly formed Heartlight Entertainment.
Monty Hobbs is a seasoned film and television veteran from North Carolina whose credits include dramas as well as work on several unscripted and reality shows. Before working on this show, he had no idea it would ignite a new chapter in his career.
“This is bigger than all of us,” said Hobbs about the work he is putting out with Chazareix. “It’s great to have this opportunity to team up with some wonderful partners and spread kindness.”
For Matthieu Chazareix, this relationship not only inspired a new purpose but launched his career as a producer. During his first collaboration with Hobbs, Chazareix decided that he wanted to use media to bring people’s unique lives to the screen.
Their shared experience, which aimed to bring audiences a message of hope and kindness, united Hobbs and Chazareix and sparked a relationship which has resulted in many collaborations, including the upcoming Christmas film ‘The Thursday Night Club’, with a budget of $1 million. The drama, set at Christmas time, explores themes of grief, hope, and altruism. Disco legend and Grammy winner Gloria Gaynor will make her acting debut along with music from hall of fame drummer and composer Carmine Appice. The film will be released on Sony Pureflix and other major platforms on Nov. 1, 2022.
Looking to the future, the pair has several series in the pipeline. Currently in production is ‘Divine Renovation’, a home improvement reality series which has already garnered interest from media distributors and will be hosted by California Highway Patrol star Eric Estrada. Based on the belief that “small fixes can make big miracles happen”, the show will bring a spiritual element to the successful home improvement genre.
Hobbs and Chazareix are joining forces with the director of ‘The Thursday Night Club’, Valerie Smaldone, to create two more shows. The first follows an extraordinary missionary who has witnessed some of the most critical moments in recent history. The second will tell the story of a spokesperson for a major brand, her philanthropy, and her rise to fame.
“Our recipe for doing business in this industry, while coming out of a world pandemic and entering a recession, is based on a formula we believe to work: fast-turnaround projects, efficient spending, and robust distribution plans,” said Chazareix and Hobbs. Together, their work is available on major platforms such as Hulu, Netflix, HBO, and Lifetime.

PHILADELPHIA – August 24, 2022 – (Newswire.com)
The Alliance for Decision Education, a national nonprofit spearheading a movement to have decision-making skills taught in K-12 schools, announced the launch of an 18-month grant program aimed at preparing high school students for life after graduation.
The grant – Planning Your Path: A College and Career Decision-Making Incubator – is for high schools that want to bring Decision Education into their classrooms by designing programs that broadly impact the way students make decisions about careers and college.
“This program aims to help students navigate one of the most challenging and important decisions in their young lives: What to do after high school?” said Alliance Director of Education Megan Roberts. “Empowering students with key decision-making skills and processes will help them form better decisions and make them feel more confident in their ability to do so.”
The Alliance, supported by two Nobel Laureates and leaders in nearly every industry, has been working since 2014 to build and coalesce the interdisciplinary field of Decision Education, which draws on concepts from psychology, neuroscience, behavioral economics, and decision sciences.
Through the grant program, each selected school will appoint a team of 3-5 staff members to lead work on their projects, take part in professional development, and receive coaching from an Alliance Education Manager. School teams are expected to learn about Decision Education throughout the grant period, and projects will eventually be shared with a national audience.
The application window opens on August 22 and closes on October 7. Awards will be made in late October.

Kidoodle.TV® is Proud to #ClearTheList at Rugel Elementary in Mesquite, Texas
What began as fulfilling one second-grade teacher’s Amazon Wish List quickly transformed into a school-wide initiative for 350 students

CALGARY, Alberta – August 24, 2022 – (Newswire.com)
Kidoodle.TV® (owned by A Parent Media Co. Inc.) is proud to announce that after clearing the list of second-grade teacher Mrs. Danielle Tresslar — fulfilling her entire Amazon Wish List for the upcoming school year — the company also cleared the lists for her entire school, providing Amazon gift cards to all other 18 classrooms at Rugel Elementary School located in Mesquite, Texas.
The school’s principal, Dr. Amanda Walker, expressed sincere gratitude, acknowledging the impact it would have on students. “Each year, teachers find themselves spending their own money to buy supplies and books for their students. This generous gift will relieve the burden for them. Kidoodle.TV has gone above and beyond to clear the list for our Rugel classroom teachers.”
A Parent Media Co. Inc. (“APMC“) was motivated to clear the lists of the entire school and, with the assistance of Dr. Walker, surprised teachers and students at an event at Rugel Elementary on Aug. 11, 2022. Rugel Elementary is a K-5 Title 1 school with 350 students. “They saw the need and they are stepping up to help. The impact they have made will go beyond the tangible, [it] will positively change lives,” said Dr. Walker.
This year, APMC placed a high priority on participating in the nationwide #ClearTheList campaign. “We’ve been fortunate to have families across the world choose to include Kidoodle.TV as part of their daily lives, and because of that, we are proud to be able to give back to communities in need,” said Neil Gruninger, President and Chief Product Officer of APMC.
The #ClearTheList movement aims to bring awareness to the lack of classroom supplies in schools throughout the United States while also recognizing and lending a helping hand to America’s deserving teachers through the fulfillment of their Amazon Wish Lists.
“We understand that having the proper tools to succeed in the classroom is an integral part of making children feel safe and fostering personal growth. An initiative like #ClearTheList allows us to extend our passion for keeping kids safe beyond the digital landscape,” added Gruninger.
Mrs. Tresslar’s note, which caught the attention of Kidoodle.TV, read:
“I work in a title 1 district where 90% of our students are under the poverty line. Every student receives free breakfast and lunch! Majority (sic) of the time students can not afford classroom supplies so I end up buying things for them to use in class! We are always in need of pencils, expo markers and books to add to our little classroom library!”
Classroom teachers spend an excessive amount of money out of pocket each year for classroom supplies. In recent years, teachers have taken to Amazon, sharing their classroom wish lists publicly online, allowing parents and donors to contribute and ease the financial burden. As a purpose-driven organization, the Kidoodle.TV team was inspired to participate in support of teachers and students and applauds the #ClearTheList campaign for its commendable efforts.
Other APMC initiatives include its annual donation of 60 million ad impressions to organizations like the Make-A-Wish Foundation that benefit the health and well-being of children.

Author Donald W. Broadhurst’s New Book, ‘What Ever Happened to REPENTANCE’ is a Faith-Based Read Detailing How Repentance Played a Role in Saving Him
Recent release “What Ever Happened to REPENTANCE” from Covenant Books author Donald W. Broadhurst is a spiritual read sharing his own experience with having lost his way. When he repented, the Holy Spirit gave him the power to turn from his sins and turn to Jesus.
CALHOUN, Ga. – August 24, 2022 – (Newswire.com)
Donald W. Broadhurst, a faith-based author, has completed his new book, “What Ever Happened to REPENTANCE”: a personal faith-based story of repentance.
Broadhurst shares, “Soon after I was saved, I knew in my heart the importance that repentance had played in my salvation, when by God’s grace the Holy Spirit convicted me of my sin and allowed me to turn from my sin and my old self and turn to Jesus and become a new creation.
“Sadly today repentance is left out of the gospel message, even though Jesus commanded it. Today you don’t hear it preached or taught, though Jesus and his disciples preached repentance.
“Paul preached repentance. Jesus preached repentance, in the churches of Revelation. So whatever happened to repentance?”
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Donald W. Broadhurst’s new book encourages believers to return to the messages of repentance taught and preached by Paul and Jesus so that they, too, may return to a path led by light and not fueled by darkness.
Readers can purchase “What Ever Happened to REPENTANCE” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon or Barnes & Noble.
