InfoTech Selected to Install and Develop Computer Lab and Training Center at Mercy Center

    NEW YORK, NY, March 28, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- InfoTech, a leading technology house and systems solutions company headquartered in New York City with programming facilities in North Dakota, is pleased to announce that it has been selected to install and develop a computer lab and training center at Mercy Center in the Mott Haven neighborhood of Bronx, NY.

Mercy Center, a nonprofit organization, is a community center for women and their families, offering free programs and services that empower women to reach their full potential and become agents of change in their families and communities.

The new computer lab and training center will allow Mercy Center to provide free advanced technology training in modern facilities to residents within the South Bronx community.

Executive Director, Sister Mary Galeone, RSM, stated, "We chose InfoTech as our partner because of their outstanding expertise and social conscience. Together we will make giant strides in closing the digital divide for women and families in the poorest Congressional district in the United States. We are eager to bring them a first rate facility that gives them new tools to build brighter futures." Eileen Niedzwiecki, Director of Development added, "Having InfoTech build the training center will allow us to integrate the latest technology in teaching job readiness skills and English to Speakers of Other Languages, and equip children with the computer skills they need to do their best in school."

"As a firm with clients ranging from big banks on Wall Street, to the Department of Defense, this is a unique opportunity for us to not only be involved in a cause that we greatly support, but it also allows us to provide the technical support and knowledge in our field of expertise to the Center and to the residents in the community," said Thorsten Buescher, EVP of IT Outsourcing at InfoTech.

InfoTech CEO and President, Matti Kon, stated, "This is a great opportunity for us to participate and contribute to the community of the South Bronx. We look forward to working with the Center and we are honored to have been selected by Mercy Center."

As a supporter and donor to Mercy Center, InfoTech looks forward to the 9th Annual Mercy Center Gala Dinner and Auction on April 10, 2013 at the New York Botanical Garden. The funds raised at this event will help to make this exciting project a reality. For additional information on the Gala and Auction please contact www.infotechfb.com or [email protected]
