New York Red Cross Needs Tech Help

From TechTV...


The New York American Red Cross is in dire need of technology equipment and services. The field workers and sites have little, if any, means of communication and the central office is processing way too much on completely paper systems. Your help in acquiring these resources would be greatly appreciated.







If you can help, please contact:
