Jenna Bush Hager and Mia Baxter, advocates for change, journalist, photographer and best friends
are launching TheNovoProject.com, their new online community committed
to "Create + Change + Refresh. A community of forward thinkers,
tastemakers, and the things we love." The site launches in conjunction
with Mother's Day, spotlighting several mothers that are influencing
the world at large (and at home), including in depth interviews with
fashion stylist Kate Young, songstress Loretta Lynn and Novo founders'
mothers, former first lady Laura Bush and interior designer Debbie
Baxter. TheNovoProject.com is the newest addition to the EQAL Media
Networks.

Jenna Bush Hager and Mia Baxter say, "We are thrilled to bring
TheNovoProject.com to a community of like minded readers. We are
excited to highlight people and organizations that are creating change,
and start a conversation about service and innovation."

Rob Weiss, Chief Content Officer and Head of Media Networks for EQAL
says, "TheNovoProject.com will bring passion and perspective to a new
site which utilizes the EQAL Media Networks capabilities in the best
ways -- to share, interact and solidify a community online."

As the site evolves, it will bring fresh and thoughtful commentary on
how members can make change--big and small--occurring the world-over
and share their personal inspirations. The interactive community will
feature and encourage comments and feedback from the readers and will
incorporate Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and other social media
applications. The inspiration for the project name derives from the
Latin word, NOVO, meaning refresh, revive, create, invent and change.
