HP Connects People with Technology Services Experts to Raise Funds for CARE’s Fight Against Global Poverty

HP today unveiled a new program that unites technology users with HP Technology Services Experts to raise donations for CARE, a leading humanitarian organization that fights global poverty.

As part of the HP Technology Services Experts sweepstakes, HP will donate $10 to CARE every time a registered visitor votes for his or her favorite Technology Services Expert on the sweepstakes site. Visitors are welcome to vote up to seven times a day.⁽¹⁾

“HP is adding the human touch to technology, as well as partnering with CARE to turn our local action into global impact,” said Michelle Weiss, vice president, Marketing, Technology Services, HP. “The awareness generated through the sweepstakes will help to advance CARE’s humanitarian work to empower women and girls as change agents in fighting poverty and its impact around the world.”

“HP has been an important and long-term partner for CARE, contributing both technology expertise and generous support to advance our mission,” said Radha Muthiah, vice president, Strategic Partnerships and Alliances, CARE. “We continue to applaud their commitment to connecting people to CARE’s work in innovative and meaningful ways.”

This effort is part of a new HP Technology Services program designed to put the “humanity” back into services. The program showcases the expertise and know-how of the HP team – from engineers to service professionals – so clients can spend less time on problems and more time moving their business forward.
