Foundation Funds School Supplies for Military Families

Image
  ( NewsUSA )  – Going back to school, whether online, in-person, or a combination, is a yearly expense that can be especially challenging for military families.In 2019, families in the United States spent approximately $700 per child on school supplies for the school year, according to the National Retail Federation.

Image
  ( NewsUSA )  – Every day, data and analytics touch our lives in ways that we can’t begin to imagine. As an example, it can be seen when you log on to a video call, pay for your train ticket, or order your cappuccino using your phone. Or view spending trends on your bank account using an app or website. Data analytics are also at work in ways you don’t see — ways that make your life easier, safer, more convenient, and more fun — especially when it comes to getting where you want to go. Indeed, data analytics reduce your travel time, manage traffic congestion, and create safer and more accessible ways to use public transit.When you’re waiting to catch the bus or jump on the commuter train to get to work in the morning, your phone app may tell you whether your ride is on schedule — and exactly how many minutes until the next bus or train arrives at your stop.
