Military Family Advocate Award recipients Admiral Christopher Grady and Mrs Christine Grady

Silver Spring, Maryland May 6, 2024 (Issuewire.com) – Easterseals DC MD VA marked a major milestone at Union Station on May 1, throwing a glamorous gala for a good cause: celebrating exemplary advocates for veterans and military families, children and adults with disabilities, and low-income families.

The 20th anniversary Advocacy Awards raised over $950,000 for Easterseals’ education, healthcare, and employment programs that served over 4,000 children and adults last year in Washington, DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia.

At the awards ceremony, every recipient voiced their support of Easterseals’ mission to enrich lives and expand opportunities for all children and adults in our communities, including people with disabilities and military backgrounds.

Among the honorees were Admiral Christopher Grady, 12th Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and his wife Christine Grady, who champion family readiness and resilience when a loved one is called to active-duty service.

“I want to thank and express my deepest gratitude for Easterseals for this recognition and, much more importantly, for your exceptional work in our communities. Your unwavering commitment to supporting military families through the toughest of times is nothing short of remarkable,” said Admiral Grady, accepting the Military Family Advocate Award. “Indeed, the critical work of Easterseals makes our joint forces stronger, so that we can meet our nation’s call, knowing that our families are well cared for.”

Senator Susan Collins and Senator Mark Warner each received the Legislative Advocate Award for their support of people with disabilities, family caregivers, veterans and military families, and early childhood education.

“Easterseals remains a strong voice for individuals with disabilities,” said Senator Collins. “I also greatly appreciate their effective advocacy for legislation I have co-authored to support caregivers, older adults, and individuals with Alzheimer’s.”

Senator Warner added, “While we’ve made good progress expanding opportunities for people with disabilities, and taken important steps forward to improve benefits and protections for our military and veteran families, I know the work isn’t done.”

On behalf of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Dr. Shereef Elnahal, Under Secretary of Veterans Affairs for Health, accepted the Partner Agency Advocate Award and shared the stories of two veterans whose service-connected disabilities did not stop them from careers after the military. Dr. Elnahal pointed to Easterseals as “an incredible partner of the VA, helping more and more stories like that emerge.”

Candi Wolff was presented with the Judy Heumann Community Advocate Award, named for the late disability rights activist. “It is a tremendous honor to see my name next to hers,” said Ms. Wolff, Executive Vice President of Global Government Affairs for Citi. Ms. Wolff was recognized for her contributions to diversity and inclusion programs at Citi and for supporting both adult care and military family services at Easterseals.

The gala featured a dinner created by Chef Robert Irvine, a member of the Easterseals Honorary Board.

Easterseals also recognized one of its own staff members. President & CEO Jon Horowitch presented the 2024 Robert S. Wilson Leadership Award to a driver who was celebrated for being a reliable friend, a source of comfort, and someone who brightens the day for everyone in the Adult Day Services program.

Special guests included former Washington NFL champion Charles Mann, Easterseals Honorary Board member; philanthropist David Rubenstein; and disability advocate Julliette Rizzo, Easterseals Emeritus Board member. The event’s list of celebrity sightings was no exception to its two decades of welcoming renowned national and local leaders.

The 2024 Advocacy Awards was made possible by presenting sponsor HII, as well as numerous other sponsors and individuals.

Photos and video from the evening are available upon request.

UVKXE Clarification Statement: A Legally Compliant Trading Platform with International Accreditation

Published

on

DENVER — Recently, the Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) published a list on its official website of cryptocurrency trading platforms that have not met its local registration requirements, mentioning UVKXE. UVKXE takes this matter seriously and wishes to clarify its credentials and compliance status to its users.

Global Compliance Credentials of UVKXE

UVKXE is committed to operating under legal and compliant principles, upholding a user-first core value. The platform has obtained several certifications from international authoritative regulatory bodies, including but not limited to:

U.S. MSB License
UVKXE has obtained the MSB license issued by the U.S. FinCEN. This certification represents the highest recognition by the U.S. government for financial service institutions, ensuring that UVKXE can legally conduct cryptocurrency-related business.

U.S. SEC License
As one of the few cryptocurrency trading platforms registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), UVKXE complies with securities and investment-related legal regulations, providing users with a safer and more transparent investment environment.

Background on the Malaysian Public List

UVKXE is in communication with relevant departments to understand local specific regulations and to advance the registration process, ensuring compliance with local market requirements.

Commitment to Legal Compliance and User-Centric Values

UVKXE Strengthens Security Strategy, Leading Innovations in Anti-Scam Technology for Crypto Platforms

Published

on

DENVER — Recently, the globally recognized cryptocurrency trading platform UVKXE officially announced the completion of its latest security system upgrade. This upgrade significantly enhances the cybersecurity defenses of the platform and introduces cutting-edge anti-scam technologies. Through this technological update, UVKXE demonstrates its commitment to user asset security and proactive measures against potential future cyber threats.

Kevin Anderson, CEO of UVKXE, stated: “User trust is the foundation of UVKXE, and ensuring the security of user assets is always our top priority. This security system upgrade incorporates AI deep learning, real-time risk control, and efficient anomaly detection algorithms, aiming to create a safe and trustworthy trading environment for users. We will continue to optimize the security measures for user assets, ensuring that every user can trade confidently on UVKXE.”

The focus of this security system upgrade is primarily on anti-scam technologies. In response to the ever-evolving online threats and scam tactics in recent years, UVKXE has strengthened its multi-layered protective mechanisms, effectively enhancing the security and responsiveness of the system. The upgrade introduces AI-driven anti-scam technology, which intelligently analyzes user behavior through deep learning algorithms, allowing for rapid identification and isolation of suspected scamming activities. The AI anti-scam system can monitor and analyze large volumes of trading data in real time, immediately freezing any suspicious transactions or account activities to safeguard user assets.

Kevin Anderson further explained: “Traditional anti-scam methods often rely on post-event analysis, whereas the new system of UVKXE can identify risks promptly before incidents occur, taking immediate action to prevent losses.”

In terms of anomaly detection, the system of UVKXE combines the transaction histories, asset conditions, login locations, and other multidimensional data of users to accurately pinpoint potential security vulnerabilities. Through anomaly detection technology, each user login and transaction can be monitored in real time, with timely alerts prompting users to confirm actions, further enhancing the security of the platform.

Kevin Anderson concluded: “We hope every user can enjoy a secure trading experience on UVKXE. By continually optimizing our security strategies, we aim to provide a safer and more convenient cryptocurrency trading experience for our users.”
