IT infrastructure worked on 100 projects or ongoing IT managed services with 90 organizations. Organizations receiving managed services have the benefits of ongoing backup, antivirus, and monitoring the security of their networks.

Budgets, financial reports, and tax returns that meet professional standards are a baseline requirement for effective fundraising.
