Heart for Kids is a Sydney-based not-for-profit that has been helping children living in poverty for 20 years through child sponsorship and education programs.
It has changed the lives of hundreds of children in China, Indonesia and India. But working across international borders as well as multiple locations in Sydney meant that collaborating and securely sharing files had become a real challenge for the organisation.
Through Connecting Up’s donations and discounts program Heart for Kids was able to get heavily discounted access to Microsoft 365, a cloud-based platform that combines Office apps with additional tools like chat, video meetings and file storage.
The team’s communication and efficiency has vastly improved since rolling out the new software, meaning they can now devote more time to their charitable work.
