Timken, Aultman Foundations Provide Funding for New Computers, Software

We are grateful to the trustees of the Timken Foundation of Canton and the Aultman Foundation, respectively, both of whom approved funding in the last quarter of 2011 for Meals On Wheels of Stark & Wayne Counties to upgrade our information technology systems.

The Timken Foundation provided a $35,000 grant toward the purchase of a new server and new computers for the agency, while the Aultman Foundation provided $6,000 toward new software and data conversion that will improve the agency's record-keeping and data storage.

The ongoing support of local foundations and corporations makes it possible for us to continue our service of providing essential nutrition to homebound individuals in the two-county area. The Timken and Aultman grants will enable us to upgrade important technology and streamline our agency operations for greater efficiency.

Thank you to both of these wonderful area foundations for their generous assistance!
