Podcast Sponsorship and Support

Reasons for Supporting Mount Carmel

We’re proud to sponsor the Mount Carmel podcast, as we believe in their mission and the services they provide to veterans and active service members. The decision to support Mount Carmel came from a personal connection and appreciation for the work they do in the community.

One day, we received a call from Paul, who informed us that Mount Carmel needed to separate from Phil Long Ford due to healthcare requirements and HIPAA compliance. Mount Carmel required their IT support to uphold these requirements. Being familiar with Mount Carmel’s community impact, we were honored to begin discussions and learn more about their excellent work, including supporting the entire life cycle of service members and their families.

We were also impressed by Mount Carmel’s expansive service offerings, ranging from mental health counseling to providing eyeglasses and assistance in transitioning to civilian life. We feel humbled to help develop and maintain necessary security measures for Mount Carmel’s networks, protecting sensitive information for active duty and veteran service members seeking assistance.

Additionally, Mount Carmel’s dedication to working alongside other organizations rather than attempting to solve every issue alone streamlined initiatives and resource optimization. This collaborative approach means Mount Carmel can continue focusing on its strengths while leveraging partnerships in the community to provide excellent overall support.
