October is National Cyber Security Month and The Children’s Place would like to recognize Valley Business Machines as our Friend of the Month.
Valley Business Machines has provided IT services to The Children’s Place since 2017. They were instrumental in providing expert support during our moving process to our new location. We were able to move our entire operation to our new facility with only three hours of downtime. Valley Business Machines provides a service that is a critical part of our mission as a Child Advocacy Center, providing HIPAA-Compliant solutions and exceptional internet security. When COVID-19 forced us to work from home, they proactively reached out to us to make sure we had enough computers and were able to equip our entire staff with cyber-secure workstations in one day. They made a very stressful time completely stress-free with their quick and seamless response to meet our needs.
The Management at Valley Business Machines are generous supporters of The Children’s Place. You will see the Valley Business Machines team at our fundraisers and they have generously loaned us equipment for several of our fundraising events. They also have supported The Children’s Place by sponsoring events and giving monthly discounts for their service.
We sincerely appreciate Valley Business Machines and their employee-owners for their dedication and support of our mission, to offer hope and healing to children and families impacted by child abuse and neglect through a coordinated community response.
With much gratitude,
The Children’s Place Board of Directors and Staff
