The CFOs' choice for Financial Technology and transformation services
The Elton John AIDS Foundation is a non-profit organisation, established by rock musician Sir Elton John – in 1992 in the United States and 1993 in the United Kingdom – to support innovative HIV prevention, education programs, direct care and support services to people living with HIV.
With offices in London and New York. Each branch of the Foundation is managed as a separate entity, including having separate website, donors, funding programs and areas around the world in which they work. The Elton John AIDS Foundation provides funding for programs on a global scale that provide relief for people living with HVI/AIDS and those at risk of contracting the disease. “No one is left behind – creating an AIDS-free future” is the organisation's mission.
With ION’s help we have developed our systems to support the work that we do, which allows us to help many more thousands of people living with and at risk of HIV, to live better lives.
The current solution Elton John Aids Foundation were using was incapable of adapting to the high growth of the organisation.
