The generous IT sector has done it again. Thanks to the collaboration of ATIO Corporation, Tarsus Technologies and StorTech, the SABC and Nedbank Women`s Day Initiative has received sponsorship close to R3 million. This immense investment will aid the successful roll-out of the fundraising campaign taking place during July/August this year.
ATIO Corporation, a specialist in ICT solutions and services, donated an Interactive Intelligence call centre, three years services and support, marketing material and furniture. ATIO Corporation will also provide technical training and the provision of all technical services required to ensure the efficient running of the call centre.
"The call centre will enable The Women`s Day Call Centre to handle large call volumes during the campaign," says Chris Van der Sande, CEO, ATIO Corporation. "The call centre, which includes a help line, will assist The Women`s Day Initiative with its extensive marketing as well as additional fundraising campaigns over the next three years, assisting the project to generate continuous revenue."
StorTech, an MB Technologies group company providing managed data storage solutions and services, sponsored the much needed office space, while Tarsus Technologies, also an MB Technologies group company, provided all the HP hardware.
"Thanks to the immense generosity of the IT sector, The Women`s Day Initiative is now able to raise greater awareness. We are extremely grateful to all of our sponsors whose involvement will lead to a huge improvement in the organisation`s fundraising capacity and long-term sustainability," said Noelene Kotschan of Fig-Jam Marketing, the event organiser.
The call centre goes live on 3 July 2006. The number is (011) 234 0717.
