Nonprofit Sector Benefits From Server Virtualization With Virtual Iron

Convoy of Hope is a not-for-profit that has touched the lives of more than 25 million people around the world by distributing more than $100 million worth of food and supplies to people in 107 countries. The organization partners with churches, businesses, civic groups, and thousands of volunteers to build supply lines, distribute donations, conduct community outreach programs, and respond to those in need immediately after a disaster. In order to ensure funding remained in place for outreach programs, Convoy of Hope turned to Virtual Iron to help rollout a new application that would allow them to process and provide timely access to vast amounts of data at a low cost. Given the increased access and use of technology Virtual Iron provides, the staff is now more efficient and productive, significantly increasing the number of people who can be impacted by the organization's services.
