Greater Good Global Support Services Adopts iWebfolio to Broaden Awareness of Charitable and Humanitarian Activity
Organization Uses Electronic Portfolio Management Solution to
Identify and Highlight Humanitarian Efforts Around the World
PITTSBURGH, PA, October 9, 2006
– Nuventive, a leading provider
of solutions for individual and institutional improvement and
achievement, today announced that Greater Good Global Support
Services (G3S2), a non-profit organization that provides training
and support services to organizations and individuals performing
benevolent activities in cross-cultural environments around
the world, will use iWebfolio, a leading electronic portfolio
management system to identify and exhibit individuals and their
activities directed towards humanitarian efforts overseas.
Greater Good Global Support Services (G3S2)
mission is to maximize, promote and support the efforts of individuals
and organizations engaged in “greater good” activities
around the world. It provides assistance meeting the unique
challenges facing those delivering charitable and humanitarian
services in a foreign environment. G3S2 provides around the
clock support to assist those who need help with a wide array
of problems ranging from lost luggage, delayed flights, lost
passports, illness, or hurricanes, to providing assistance in
locating specialized materials, transportation and medical care.
G3S2 also provides logistical support for coordinated humanitarian
efforts such as the Asian tsunami and Hurricane Katrina. Among
the regions and countries served by the organization are Malaysia,
Indonesia, China, Uzbekistan, Chechnya, Mauritania, Honduras,
Singapore, and Scotland. G3S2 also educates and prepares individuals
who intend to invest their lives in overseas “greater
good” and humanitarian endeavours.
The organization recognizes that showcasing
the efforts and accomplishments of individuals and organizations
is critical to the promotion, advancement and coordination of
these activities around the world. “The ability to define
yourself or your work within a highly accessible, shared context
is invaluable and a ‘must’ to the individuals who
engage in this effort,” stated Matt Wallace, G3S2 Director
and Founder.
iWebfolio is a personalized, flexible online
solution powerful enough to store and present a lifetime's worth
of educational, professional and personal experience. It provides
a
flexible framework and structure for the organization and presentation
of materials to multiple audiences. With iWebfolio, individuals
and organizations can create and share content with different
audiences. The solution permits the user to control access to
and dissemination of information to the appropriate audiences
for a specific period of time. iWebfolio facilitates the exchange
of information and feedback with peers, employers, benefactors
or other interested parties. Mr. Wallace intends to implement
iWebfolio for key G3S2 personnel, Board Directors, staff, resident
interns and clients so that they can provide personal portfolios
that focus on and exhibit their “greater good” efforts.
Noting the capability of iWebfolio to create
portfolios for different audiences, Mr. Wallace commented, “The
incredible diversity of background, skills and experience of
individuals who make a commitment to supporting greater good
activities is astounding. iWebfolio enables users and organizations
to present appropriate information to specific audiences and
effectively communicate key messages in a compelling way that
was never possible in the past. The energy, expertise and attention
to detail demonstrated by the Nuventive team have built a strong
foundation for a long-term partnership,” said Mr. Wallace.
“We are very pleased and proud
to have been selected by Greater Good Global Support Services
and we look forward to helping the organization achieve their
vision,” said Dr. David Raney, Nuventive CEO. “The
efforts and commitment of G3S2 and their constituency should
be recognized and commended.”
