Youth Education Center Recieves New Server and Website
The Challenge
The Peace Learning Center teaches students how to peacefully resolve conflicts, and promotes "a culture of peace through education to youth and communities." The PLC offers a variety of services ranging from the one-day Peace Education program to a three-day Peace Camp. These programs help students learn the core values of the PLC, which include "peaceful resolution of all conflicts, strength of diversity in our community, the potential of youth, and responsible stewardship of the environment and community resources."
Prior to contacting NPower, the PLC was having issues with their server and their website. The server lacked both the speed and storage space that the organization needed to run smoothly. The website was very difficult to update, and did not present the polished and professional image that the organization wanted. Overall, the PLC was in need of a new tech support company that could offer high quality service at rates that fit comfortably into the budget of a nonprofit.
The Solution
NPower's efficient, friendly service helped the PLC solve both of their major tech problems. NPower consulted with the PLC to determine exactly what services were needed, and then quickly went to work implementing those changes. The new server installed by NPower is much faster and has greater storage capacity. The new website that NPower created for the PLC is attractive, easy to navigate, and much easier to update than the old site. NPower even arranged for the PLC to receive free software through a partnership with Microsoft.
The Impact
With the help of NPower, the Peace Learning Center was able to address all of its tech issues in one fell swoop. And thanks to NPower?s low rates, they were able to do it without taking funds away from the organization?s core programs. PLC Director of Finance and Information Technology Erin Burton said, ?It has made us a lot more efficient.? She also said that the website ?has given us a more polished, professional look. I have been very impressed with NPower.?
