  • Chicago, IL (1888PressRelease) January 12, 2011 - Ashley Ellis, an IT staffing/recruiting firm, is proud to announce the creation of their "Technology for Tweens" program. The socially conscious program will contribute to children in local metropolitan areas by providing their classrooms with the technology they need to engage and succeed in the 21st century.

    Based in Naperville, IL, Ashley Ellis has offices in Chicago, IL, Atlanta, GA, and, coming in March, Houston, TX. It is in these communities' schools where children will benefit from the program. As more offices open over the next several months, this list of local communities will grow.

    Despite the past months of a rocky employment climate, Ashley Ellis has thrived thanks to the support of the communities around them. In return, they are donating to students who don't have readily available technology to connect them to an expanding world of information.

    The concept behind the program is straightforward: For every IT professional Ashley Ellis successfully puts to work on a fulltime basis, they will donate a brand new computer to a classroom in the area. The firm has partnered with DonorsChoose.org to provide significant aid to local classroom projects with computer needs.

    Brad Imhoff, CEO of Ashley Ellis, is excited for this opportunity to give back: "Dealing with successful IT people and companies everyday, it's easy to forget there are people in our own back yards who don't have access to a computer. In this technologically rich world, children must be able to harness the power of technology to enrich their lives."

    Katy Gallagher, COO, acknowledges what a profound effect "Technology for Tweens" has on her employees: "It was already rewarding to place candidates at their dream IT jobs, but it's even more meaningful and motivating to know that for every one of these successful fulltime placements, our efforts are helping to transform the lives of children nationwide." Gallagher is eager to introduce this program to clients, whose hiring efforts will now have a direct effect upon the future of their local schools and students.
