The Children’s Home Society of Florida (CHS), a leading nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of children and families faced significant challenges stemming from an outdated IT infrastructure. Operating for years with outdated technology had severely impacted CHS, leaving its IT team overwhelmed and trapped in a cycle of maintaining and protecting a fragile system. This constant strain not only drained resources but also stalled progress on critical initiatives that were essential to advancing the organization’s mission of helping children and families in need.
Faced with mounting challenges from years of using outdated technology, CHS recognized that a digital transformation was no longer optional—it was essential. Seeking a trusted partner to guide this critical shift, CHS joined forces with ION247, a Pavion Company, to embark on a bold 21-month tech refresh to modernize their IT infrastructure. This collaboration became more than just a technical undertaking; it was a pivotal moment for the organization. With ION247’s expertise, CHS overhauled its IT infrastructure and restored CHS’s capacity to focus on what truly mattered: advancing the mission to improve the lives of children and families.
This was one of the heaviest lifts I’ve ever experienced in my 30 years in IT, but the results speak for themselves. With ION247’s expertise and unwavering commitment, we’ve achieved a level of agility and efficiency that seemed out of reach before. Our IT team can now focus on what matters most—empowering CHS to better serve children and families across Florida.
