The Uptown Music Collective is pleased to announce the awarding of 11 scholarships for the non-profit school of music’s 2025-2026 school year, totaling $19,800. In addition, $5,400. will be added to the school’s financial aid fund thanks to partnerships with the Hudock Capital Group, UPMC Health Plan, and the Kiessling Group of Janney Montgomery Scott. Funding for the scholarships was made possible through the generous donations of the local community, including both individual and corporate donors. Each of the 11 scholarships awarded will cover one full year at the school.In its 25th year of serving the local community, the Uptown Music Collective has stood by its promise to never turn away a deserving student due to financial reasons, a policy in place since its founding in 2000. In its early days, teachers would accept students in need on a pro bono
basis, or the school would cover the expenses of the student’s lessons. In 2009, the Collective offered its first scholarship, the Alice Hileman Memorial Scholarship, which was created and funded by Hileman’s daughter. That scholarship was soon followed by the Lew Gilbert Memorial Scholarship, created by family and friends in memory of local businessman/musician Lew Gilberti. Eight years ago, the Uptown Music Collective significantly increased its scholarship offerings and formalized a new slidingscale discount rate that allows the school to help even more students in need. Aside from the generous donations from individuals and local businesses, the financial aid being offered is the result of the school’s highly successful Scholarship Fundraising Concert held every January at the Journey Bank Community Arts Center. “Each year, we continue to be amazed at the generosity of our community,” said Jared Mondell, UMC Assistant Executive Director. “Our scholarship and financial aid program meets a critical need for our students, allow them to learn their instruments, grow as students, and gain valuable skills that will last a lifetime.” The Alice Hileman Memorial Scholarship has evolved since its creation and is now a meritbased scholarship awarded to a graduating Collective

Natural air purification: Indoor gardening is not only a major aesthetic upgrade, some houseplants actually measurably improve indoor air quality and help manage mold growth. For cleaner, healthier air, pair a high-quality air purifier with some carefully placed greenery in your various living spaces. For example, a good choice for bedrooms are snake plants, which remove toxins like formaldehyde and xylene from the air while releasing oxygen and moisture for better breathing at night. Whereas spider plants are great for kitchens and bathrooms, as they can help fight mold in these humid rooms. If you have pets or

Recognizing Stroke Signs and Symptoms Could Save a Life
(StatePoint) Stroke continues to remain a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. With over 12.2 million new strokes occurring each year, experts at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke say that every minute counts, as fast treatment may lessen the brain damage that a stroke can cause.
Stroke can affect anyone at any age, at any time, making it critical that everyone, especially those with known risk factors, understand and recognize the signs and symptoms of stroke, as well as their options as patients.
• F - Face Drooping
• A - Arm Weakness
• S - Speech Difficulty
• T - Time to call 911
The sudden onset of any of these signs, as well as confusion, severe headaches and vision problems, could mean that someone is having a stroke, which is why it’s important to call 911 immediately when a stroke is suspected.
The signs of stroke can be subtle and hard to recognize, so educating yourself and others is key to noticing and responding quickly. One easy way to remember the signs of stroke is with the acronym FAST from the American Stroke Association. This stands for:
experience a second stroke within the first five years. However, with lifestyle changes and proper care, patients can reduce their risk
“Everyone should be familiar with the signs and symptoms of stroke to ensure that they or a loved one receive appropriate and timely care. Going to the emergency room at the onset of symptoms can impact the care a patient receives, including their eligibility to enroll in a clinical trial, so it’s vital to seek immediate medical attention at the first sign of stroke,” says Clay Johnston, PhD, MD, MPH, Chief Medical Officer and Co-Founder, Harbor Health.
Disability is common post-stroke, and recovery periods can be lengthy. This highlights the importance of speedy emergency care, which can help prevent disability and death, and may lead to a better quality of life post-stroke. It’s also important to understand that 25% (1 in 4) of stroke patients will

One particular clinical trial, Librexia STROKE, is currently recruiting patients to evaluate an investigational medication for recurrent stroke prevention, but eligibility is timesensitive and participants must enroll within 48 hours after the onset of their stroke symptoms.
Delays in seeking care following the initial symptoms of a stroke can limit access to these types of innovative treatment options.
Learn life-saving facts about stroke prevention and treatment by visiting https://www.stroke. org/en/about-stroke/ stroke-symptoms.
“The opportunity to receive the best possible treatment and care begins with widespread awareness of the signs and symptoms of stroke and the urgency of seeking immediate emergency medical attention when a stroke is suspected,” says Dr. Johnston.

Fuel Your On-the-Go Adventures With Real Food This Summer
(StatePoint) Does your summer involve active, outdoor fun? Whether it’s a hike, a road trip, a day at the pool, or just a busy afternoon, fueling your adventures the right way can keep you energized. Here are some important nutrients to focus on:
Electrolytes: Hydration is about more than drinking plenty of water, it’s also about keeping your electrolytes in balance for healthy heart, nerve and muscle function. When outdoors on a hot day, especially when you’re exercising, consider drinking some coconut water, or adding a pinch of lemon juice and sea salt to your water bottle. Pickles, olives and yogurt are also quick grab-and-go foods that provide electrolytes.
Fiber: Easy-to-pack fresh fruits like oranges, apples and berries are not only refreshing on a hot summer day, they are real foods that provide fiber, a dietary nutrient that’s important for digestive health, along with a range of other vitamins and minerals.
for busy summer days. From tangy Thai Chili Style and Hot Buffalo to Zesty Lemon Pepper and Bacon Ranch, each fully cooked, ready-to-eat pouch provides 10-17 grams of protein and can be enjoyed straight from the pouch or mixed into quick, summerfriendly recipes like salads, sandwiches and more.
By stocking your pantry with ready-to-eat proteins and other flavorful real foods, you’ll always be ready when the mood for summer fun and adventure strikes.
