Central Vancouver — Columbia Credit Union gave Innovative Services NW a $10,000 grant for the nonprofits Mobile Technology Project.

The money will be used to purchase eight Surface 3 Pro laptops, four of which will go to the Early Intervention/Pediatric Therapy Program and four of which will go to the Employment Services Program.

The laptops will allow the staff of both programs to “access information and create documentation quickly and efficiently while away from Innovative’s facility, thereby improving effectiveness and increasing our capacity to provide service in these critical programs,” according to a release from the nonprofit.

Innovative Services works with children, adults and families in the community who have disabilities or other disadvantages.
