Transcription de la présentation
  1. Connecting families with troops live via the Internet Showing the troops that “America Cares”

  2. Our purpose:Facilitate live communication between Americans and loved ones serving in harms way abroad. This provides a means for Americans to show we care about our troops. We ran many of the videoconferencing events with the troops and families you read about in the press recently. http://www.OperationAmericaCares.org Who is America Cares?

  3. InfraSupport builds and manages computer networks. We are proud to provide the IT expertise required to make videoconference meetings happen. Our extremely unglamorous firewall system forms the base for all the excitement. Think of InfraSupport as the plumbing company, building the pipes to feed data to the faucets. http://www.InfraSupportEtc.com Who isInfraSupport? InfraSupport CORPORATION

  4. We bring families and loved ones serving our country overseas together

  5. We have an opportunity to build one or more videoconference sites in Iraq. You have an opportunity to support our troops in a tangible way. It costs roughly $84,000 per year per site in Iraq for equipment and bandwidth. With your help, we can make face to face family meetings almost as common as phone calls. And we need your help
