Polycom forms Philanthropic Partnership
Polycom has partnered with Right To Play, an humanitarian organization that uses the transformative power of sport and play. Polycom is donating Polycom RealPresence video collaboration solutions to Right To Play to expand the reach of their programmes by improving global communications throughout the organization and directly linking donors to see the impact of their support.
A key application of video implementation is to enable experienced coaches at Right To Play's Toronto headquarters and other regional offices to train coaches and other community members in countries such as Ghana, Ethiopia, China, Peru and Jordan from thousands of miles away, but connected face-to-face with the visual and audio clarity of Polycom video. The live video training sessions will teach in-country coaches how to lead and implement Right To Play programmes in their communities. The sessions will also demonstrate how to be positive role models for children by teaching them life skills such as leadership, teamwork, healthy living, resistance to peer pressure, goal setting, equality, and tolerance. The sessions can also be recorded for continued use later.
Geri Mitchell-Brown, Director, Philanthropy and Community Relations, Polycom, said, "Right To Play's mission is uplifting and their approach innovative and collaborative. Our partnership with Right To Play reflects Polycom's commitment to bringing people together through the power of visual communication and aligns with our vision to make video collaboration ubiquitous in a more connected world. Right To Play is positively affecting the lives of children who need our help the most and we are honoured to be able to contribute to this worthy cause."
