Help will be faster and more efficient.

MILWAUKEE, WI, UNITED STATES, February 23, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Educational Credential Evaluators, Inc. (ECE^®), a nonprofit organization that evaluates foreign educational credentials, is making changes to its philanthropic initiative ECE^® Aid which was developed to provide free evaluation reports for vulnerable and displaced populations.

The ECE^® Aid program initially launched in August 2016 has provided fee waivers to more than 700 individuals from 80 different countries. Money had been collected through generous donations but ECE will fully fund ECE^® Aid fee waivers going forward.

By doing so, this will provide the following advantages:
- Support people most in need without also relying on donations coming from those ECE serves.
- More effectively manage relationships with ECE^® Aid participating organizations.
- Better control of the flow of ECE^® Aid recipients going into our production process.
- Anticipated elimination of recipient waiting list, a necessity during the pandemic.
- Removal of daily administrative work in donation tracking and reporting.

Zachary Holochwost, ECE^® Aid & Market Research Manager said, “The decision came down to streamlining the process to be more efficient and effective for all stakeholders. Ultimately, funding ECE^® Aid through our own revenue will save both time and money while also allowing us to better serve ECE^® Aid recipients and participants alike. I like to think of this change as a more holistic approach to supporting ECE^® Aid rather than being reliant on individual efforts and contributions.”

In addition, the ECE^® Aid newsletter will change to a quarterly publication to improve both the quality and quantity of stories and information readers receive.
