SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RHUB Communications, Inc., the leader in web conferencing and remote support appliance technology, today announced that the Community Assistance Network (CAN), a nonprofit that provides shelter, food, daycare and job training to those in need in the Baltimore, MD area, is using RHUB’s TurboMeeting video and web conferencing appliances to streamline its operations.
“CAN is funded by government grants and private foundation grants, and with the current budget cuts it means there are less and less programs we can provide to the homeless we serve here in Baltimore,” said Anthony Beritela, fiscal officer of CAN. “Our ability to save dollars is key to CAN’s existence, especially because it allows us to focus funds on what is really important -- the people.”
RHUB’s TurboMeeting appliance offers a set of six powerful tools (remote support, remote access, video conferencing, web conferencing, audio conferencing and web seminar) which are helping CAN revamp their communications and operations, saving precious dollars on meeting trips and providing remote support to employees, volunteers and community partners.
RHUB’s appliance has a great return on investment because it is very easy to install and it requires no maintenance or other special hardware.
In Baltimore, CAN operates the three largest homeless shelters: the Hannah More Emergency Shelter, the Eastside Family Emergency Shelter, and the Men’s Westside Emergency Shelter. The organization also provides food packages to families in need and is serving, right now, an average of 1,000 emergency food packages each month. Additionally, every Christmas CAN serves an extra 1,500 holiday food boxes.
