PHILADELPHIA, PA — Jack’d proudly partnered with Philly Black Pride to sponsor the prestigious “250 Changemakers of Philadelphia” Awards Ceremony, an inspiring evening dedicated to honoring LGBTQIA+ leaders who are making a lasting impact across the city.

Held during Philly Black Pride weekend, the ceremony spotlighted individuals across industries—from advocacy and healthcare to nightlife, media, and entrepreneurship—who are actively shaping a more inclusive and empowered future for Philadelphia’s Black and queer communities.

As an official sponsor, Jack’d reinforced its commitment to uplifting community voices by supporting a platform that celebrates visibility, leadership, and cultural influence. The brand’s presence extended beyond sponsorship, engaging directly with attendees through on-site activations, community conversations, and digital touchpoints designed to bridge real-world connections with in-app experiences.

“Philly Black Pride is more than a celebration—it’s a movement,” said Chris Parker (Parker XL), leading U.S. social and experiential marketing for Jack’d. “To honor 250 changemakers in one room is powerful. These are the individuals shaping culture, protecting community, and pushing progress forward. Jack’d is proud to stand alongside them and amplify their stories.”

The partnership aligns with Jack’d’s broader initiative to invest in culturally significant programming that supports and celebrates the diversity within the LGBTQIA+ community. By sponsoring the Changemakers Awards, Jack’d continues to deepen its connection to grassroots movements and community-led platforms that drive real impact.

In addition to sponsoring the ceremony, Jack’d supported Philly Black Pride weekend through:

• On-site brand activations and community engagement
• Digital promotion highlighting honorees and event moments
• Exclusive app-based incentives encouraging new user sign-ups
• Social media coverage amplifying voices and experiences from the event

The “250 Changemakers of Philadelphia” Awards serve as a testament to the resilience, creativity, and leadership within the Black LGBTQIA+ community—values that Jack’d continues to champion both on and off the platform.

Jack’d is hitting the road. This Pride season, the leading social and dating platform for gay, bi, trans, and queer men officially announces its City-to-City Tour—a multi-market experiential campaign designed to bring the app’s features, energy, and community directly into real life.

Spanning key cities across the U.S., the Jack’d Tour will activate during major Pride celebrations, including stops in Philadelphia, Houston, Washington D.C., Miami, Chicago, New York City, and Charlotte. The tour aims to transform digital connection into real-world interaction through immersive experiences, live content creation, and community-driven moments.

“This tour is about meeting our community where they are—in real life,” said Jack’d Rep, who leads U.S. social and experiential strategy for Jack’d. “Jack’d has always been about connection. Now we’re taking that beyond the screen and creating moments people can feel, experience, and remember.”

Each stop on the tour will feature:

• Interactive Jack’d Lounges with charging stations, giveaways, and meet-ups
• Live content experiences, including street interviews and creator collaborations
• On-site app engagement, with guided demos highlighting features like Match, Moments, and Events
• Exclusive merch drops and branded giveaways
• In-app integrations, including geo-targeted alerts and promo codes unlocking Jack’d Pro

The City-to-City Tour is a key part of Jack’d’s evolving brand strategy—positioning the platform not just as a dating app, but as a cultural connector within the LGBTQIA+ community.

From Pride festivals to nightlife takeovers, Jack’d will collaborate with local creators, event producers, and community leaders in each city—ensuring every activation reflects the unique energy and identity of its audience.

“This isn’t a one-size-fits-all tour,” Parker added. “Each city has its own culture, its own rhythm. We’re tapping into that and building experiences that feel authentic to each community we show up in.”

As Pride season continues, Jack’d invites users and allies alike to join the tour, connect in real time, and experience the platform in a whole new way.

**PHOENIX, AZ** – True North Automation Systems LLC (DBA True North), a pioneer in cloud-based transportation technology, today announced the official launch of its next-generation owner-operator carrier platform. Designed specifically for owner-operators, True North combines proprietary AI freight dispatching, automated compliance, and a “driver-first” philosophy to modernize the freight industry.

In an era of rising fuel costs and complex administrative burdens, True North provides a tech-driven sanctuary and vital independent truck driver support. By integrating smart administration, elite logistics, and owner-operator business administration software into a single cloud-based ecosystem, the company allows owner-operators to strip away the “back-office” noise and focus on what they do best: driving.

“The road is evolving, but the carrier model has been stuck in the past,” said a spokesperson for True North. “We handle the safety and the scale so the driver can handle the business. Our goal is to leverage AI to maximize margins for the backbone of the American economy-the owner-operator.”

 **Key Features of the True North Platform:**

* **AI-Driven Trucking Profitability:** Proprietary routing and AI freight dispatching software identifies the most lucrative lanes while functioning as premium trucking software with real-time fuel prices.

* **Ultimate Autonomy:** Standing out among no forced dispatch trucking companies, a strict policy ensures that owner-operators maintain complete control over their schedules and business decisions.

* **Automated DOT Compliance for Owner-Operators:** The platform manages DOT inspections, permits, IFTA, and drug testing, ensuring drivers remain compliant without the paperwork headache.

* **Precision Maintenance:** Mileage-based truck maintenance alerts notify drivers of essential oil changes and inspections based on manufacturer specifications.

* **24/7 Trucker Roadside Assistance:** Every partner receives comprehensive support including 24/7 roadside assistance, towing, fuel delivery, and mechanical support.

True North champions flat-rate trucking carrier partnerships by operating on a transparent pricing model: an 18% load fee and a $249 weekly tech fee, with no hidden surprises. This streamlined approach ensures that as the driver’s revenue grows, the partnership remains predictable and scalable.

Owner-operators ready to elevate their operations are encouraged to visit Haul4TrueNorth.com or call (877) 567-7776.

**About True North Automation Systems LLC:**

Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, True North is a cloud-based carrier and technology firm dedicated to the success of independent owner-operators. By merging deep industry expertise with cutting-edge AI automation, True North is redefining the relationship between carriers and drivers.
