What is an LGBTQ+ ally and how to serve the community this Pride Month
Pride month has arrived in the UK so here's a refresher on why supporting the LGBTQ+ community is so important in 2025 and how exactly to be a good ally Pride month is finally here and its time for a refresh on how best to be an ally to the LGBTQ+ community. Despite it being 2025, members of the queer community still suffer prejudice and hate, only made worse now by the UK Supreme Court ruling excluding trans people from the definition of "woman," and further the need of"third spaces" as a result. Deloitte's 2023 LGBT+ Inclusion at Work report surveyed 5,474 LGBTQ+ people in the workplace, across multiple sectors in 13 countries and found that 49% of UK employees hesitate to discuss any aspect of their private life, compared to the collective 37% elsewhere. The study also found that British workers showed more concern of being treated differently, scoring 43% to the global 39%. Whilst this may be initially concerning, Deloitte also stated that more than half of the UK LGBTQ+ employees surveyed felt more comfortable being 'out' in their work environment than all other countries asked; 52% happy to be out versus 43% not in Britain. The community in Britain shared that this also extended to their feelings around more senior colleagues in their organisation. Covering all levels of seniority, UK respondents are more likely to be 'out', the data showing "45% in UK junior roles vs 37% globally; and 60% in UK senior roles vs 51% globally". Though 59% of employees chalked this positive result down to ally-ship and support, an additional 12% in Britain admitted to fearing the affect being queer would have on their career opportunities and 25% claimed they would face discrimination/harassment if out. Help us improve our content by completing the survey below. We'd love to hear from you! At the time, Jackie Henry, Deloitte's managing partner for people and purpose, stated: "The findings show that organisations still need to do more to provide a safe environment in which LGBTQ+ employees feel able to be themselves at work". What is an ally? Two years on, the community have continued to celebrate Pride month and its festivals, encouraging others to learn and show support, but being a good friend and being an good ally or two different things, says Reach Out - a mentoring and support collective for young people. They define "ally" as "someone who stands up for, supports equal rights for everyone," and in the case of the LGBTQ+ community, refers to them as someone who does "what you can to call out discrimination and fight for equality, trying to make the world a better place for anyone who identify as LGBTQIA+". How to be a good LGBTQ+ ally Reach Out also state the importance of being a visible ally, whether that be attending rallies and events, "calling out homophobia, transphobia or queerphobia wherever you see it, and supporting businesses, charities or other initiatives owned or operated by LGBTQIA+ people". Listening to learn and being respectful: Take the initiating to educate yourself on LGBTQ+ history, listening actively and not downplaying or invalidating people's experience. Being open to, and engaging with, these conversations helps ensure you and others treat those around you with respect. Using inclusive language and accepting gender diversity: We can do this by respecting names and pronouns chosen by members of the community, and opting for words that don't assume genders and relationship roles. For example, terms such as "partner" is inclusive. Uplifting diverse voices: Often, the community's experience is also effected by other factors such as religion, ability, culture and race. Seek these diverse stories out for a more well-rounded understanding of the complexities being LGBTQ+. Seeing the whole person: It is easy to label someone by one characteristic or factor. Its important to acknowledge people are layered and complex, with many interests, passions and skills that and should be celebrated.

Yuenglings Ice Cream Corp (OTC: YCRM) Files Name Change to Frequency Holdings, Inc. to Reflect Strategic Evolution Into Multi-Brand Tech Holding Company
CHICAGO, IL - May 12, 2025 ( NEWMEDIAWIRE ) - Yuenglings Ice Cream Corporation (OTC: YCRM) today announced that it has filed amended articles of incorporation with the State of Nevada to formally change its corporate name to Frequency Holdings, Inc. The name 'Frequency' represents more than a rebrand, it's a recalibration of vision, structure, and purpose. Inspired by the capital-first Berkshire Hathaway model and the Alphabet innovative playbook, Frequency Holdings is designed to scale a portfolio of high-impact technology ventures with clear vertical leadership, operational independence, and long-term shareholder value creation. 'This isn't about noise, it's about signal,' said Rick Jordan, CEO of YCRM and founder of ReachOut. 'I've spent my entire career tuning into where the world is going and building platforms around clarity, speed, and purpose. Frequency is the right identity for what we're building... a company that knows how to cut through noise and deliver results.' ReachOut, the Company's flagship operating subsidiary, will continue executing its high-velocity acquisition strategy across the United States, targeting IT and cybersecurity firms with $500,000 to $2 million in topline revenue. These acquisitions are strategically chosen for underserved regional markets and integrated using ReachOut's AI-driven support model, operational playbooks, and scalable service stack. 'ReachOut isn't slowing down. If anything, it's accelerating,' Jordan added. 'But Frequency opens the door to more. We're not just scaling one brand. We're building a platform that allows us to incubate or acquire other companies in digital identity, AI, automation, and beyond. TRUSTLESS is just the beginning.' TRUSTLESS, Frequency's early-stage digital identity and data verification venture, is designed to operate independently with its own leadership and capitalization path. Other synergistic ventures are under consideration for acquisition or launch within the Frequency ecosystem. The Company also confirmed that FINRA review for the name and symbol change is still in process, and this filing with the State of Nevada marks the formal transition of its corporate identity. The public markets will be updated accordingly once final approval is granted. 'We've already changed who we are operationally. Now we're making it official,' said Jordan. 'Frequency Holdings reflects the real architecture of this business... a parent company with bold conviction, scalable subsidiaries, and a clear plan to build value the public markets can recognize.' The filing was submitted on Friday, May 9th, 2025 and is expected to be reflected on the state's systems later today, May 12th, or tomorrow, May 13th.

Yuengling's Ice Cream Corporation (OTC: YCRM), Doing Business as ReachOut, Files 2024 10-K With Profitability, Growth, and Corporate Transformation in Focus
Net Income Swings Positive to $4.4M as YCRM Undergoes Name Change and Platform Transformation CHICAGO, IL - April 16, 2025 ( NEWMEDIAWIRE ) - Yuengling's Ice Cream Corporation (OTC: YCRM), currently undergoing a name and symbol change pending FINRA approval and operating under the brand ReachOut, today announced the filing of its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, showcasing revenue growth and a dramatic turnaround to profitability. Financial Highlights: 'The traditional MSP model is fundamentally broken and dying -- thousands of fragmented regional providers with slow response times, basic security, and no ability to scale,' said Rick Jordan, CEO of YCRM. 'We're completely reinventing what's possible in this space. This isn't about incremental improvement. We're building a nationwide brand where none existed before, bringing advanced protection to small and medium businesses that have been completely ignored by the industry. Just like a large wireless brand disrupted telecom for everyday customers, we're bringing that same revolutionary approach to cybersecurity for everyday businesses.' Strategic Transformation The Company announced it is executing a transformation strategy modeled after the Berkshire Hathaway structure with an Alphabet-style portfolio approach, enabling ReachOut to own, develop, and scale independent technology ventures. It also formally submitted its application with FINRA for a name and ticker symbol change, signaling a clear departure from legacy operations and reflecting its focus on cybersecurity, automation, and digital identity technology. It also formally submitted its application with FINRA for a name and ticker symbol change, signaling a clear departure from legacy operations and reflecting its focus on cybersecurity, automation, and digital identity technology. 'I'm not interested in being just another player in this industry – we're building something completely disruptive,' said Rick Jordan, CEO. 'The Berkshire model gives us capital efficiency while Alphabet's playbook lets us incubate and scale disruptive technology ventures independently. It's a complete strategic transformation. We're shedding the old skin and emerging as something entirely different: America's first national cybersecurity portfolio brand with a technology holding company structure that can move with the today, not get stuck in a decades old model. This structure gives our shareholders asymmetric upside potential beyond what traditional service businesses could ever deliver.' Future Growth Strategy The Company has announced it completely reimagined its growth strategy, abandoning the larger acquisition model in favor of a nimble, high-velocity approach that delivers greater integration speed and ROI. This transformation combines holding company economics with disruptive market penetration, creating a dual pathway to shareholder value: 'Big acquisitions are dead money. Our model targets high-potential firms in high-demand low-competition markets we can transform 2-5X in under 24 months through data driven local search capture,' said Rick Jordan, CEO. 'Combined with ventures like TRUSTLESS, we're not just building a better service company – we're creating a wealth-generation machine with asymmetric upside that traditional players can't touch. This isn't incremental improvement. This is total industry disruption.' The Company's transformation from a traditional MSP to a technology holding company represents one of the most ambitious pivots in the cybersecurity industry. The Company encourages investors and industry watchers to follow the Company's developments as it executes its disruptive strategy and drives toward its planned NASDAQ uplisting. @mrrickjordan on X @mrrickjordan on Instagram @reachoutit on X For media, TV appearance and Investor Relations Contact: Email: [email protected] Phone: 312-288-8008 ReachOut is the operating brand of Yuengling's Ice Cream Corporation (OTC: YCRM), a cybersecurity-first technology company scaling a portfolio of tech ventures through a modern holding company structure.
