Managed Solution Prepares 55 Laptops and Donates IT Support to Foster Teens Heading to College

San Diego, CA, June 16, 2018– For ten years now, Managed Solution, a full-service Southern California based technology firm, has supported transitioning foster youth in the Just in Time College Bound Program by preparing laptops for 55 students to help them excel in college, along with providing the help desk services they may need on their journey through higher education.

Over the past few weeks, the Managed Solution team has been preparing laptops with imaging applications and security updates to get them ready for distribution to youth at the Annual College Bound Award Day, June 16, 2018. This year, the Managed Solution team was honored to distribute laptops to 55 youth, who received essential resources to help them succeed in their first year in college.

“It is such a heart-warming experience to see these youth, who have faced so much before the age of 18 feel like they now have a support system and family called the JIT community,” says Jennell Mott, Vice President of Cloud and Vendor Operations at Managed Solution.

“I am proud to say that we are currently servicing over 500 local foster youth, offering them our help desk support, and by that we hopefully help them to successfully begin a new life chapter as college students and continue their path to become confident, capable and connected,” Mott added.

Founder of Managed Solution, Sean Ferrel, added: “As a local provider of technology services and solutions, we feel strongly about being involved in the community and we are proud to be able to continue to help further the cause of this great organization for the past 10 years.”

Help JIT Meet its $200k Goal to Support Foster Youths

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

Each year, approximately 300 youth reach the age of 18 and transition out of the foster care. But with little or no support the odds and the statistics are stacked against them. Managed Solution invites supporters to once again invest to support the JIT programs that build self-sufficiency for over 500 youth each year.

Just In Time for Foster Youth is running a program called "Pathways to Financial Power", where JIT participants can learn important business skills, such as overcoming self-limiting beliefs, cultivating effective resumes, and interview skills. Discovering a Pathway to Financial Power breaks the cycle of foster care and gives the next generation an opportunity to make a contribution of their own.

Our VP of Cloud and Vendor Operations, Jennell Mott, is the Board Secretary for JIT.  Support Managed Solution's  own employee while helping a great cause for amazing kids.  JIT only needs $53K more to meet its $200K goal before the 2016 Pathway to Financial Power event on September 24, 2016.
