Big Data Analytics solutions provider Link Analytics has expanded its commitment to community involvement by supporting the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta with a three-pronged approach.
The Atlanta-based technology company will offer financial assistance, promote team involvement and provide pro bono database work to one of the largest clinical care providers for children in the nation.
Children's Healthcare, a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of children through patient care, research and education, manages more than half a million patient visits every year among three hospitals and 20 neighborhood locations.
Through the role as a financial contributor to the Beyond the Cure Survivor Program, Link will fund a think tank for two years that will research issues relating to cancer survivorship for children. The company will also help fund college scholarships for childhood cancer survivors who have used determination and motivation to overcome the many challenges associated with the disease.
Link will be in charge of several Fun Factory events that are intended to encourage its employees to interact with patients and families of Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. These events will include games, arts and crafts, and storytelling and will take place at the Zone, a play and relaxation area for patients and families at Scottish Rite Hospital.
To help Children's Healthcare secure long-term customer relationships and additional funding from supporters of the organization, Link will freely devote time to show them how to optimize their fundraising initiatives by providing them with analytical talent, tools and solutions that highlight the value of their donor and volunteer database.
"We believe that in order to have the greatest and longest-lasting impact to this phenomenal organization, we needed an approach that cut across multiple levels of 'giving back,'" Will Hakes, co-founder and CEO of Link Analytics, said in a statement. "We are extremely proud to be able to help an organization that's near and dear to our hearts."
Lucy Klausner, director of development and strategic partnerships at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, said in a press release that they are looking forward to working with Link and believe the multiple-level approach "will have a long-lasting effect for kids today and tomorrow."
