AlphaCard sent us a printer

AlphaCard generously donated a badge printer & supplies for Mary’s Place day shelter in Seattle.

Now I can start automated checkin and develop other features in the app I’ve been writing for the shelter.

… and @alphacardsys wrote a blog post about their donation to @MarysPlaceWA:

AlphaCard Donates ID Card System to Nonprofit Resource Center for Homeless Women:

Based in Seattle, WA, Mary’s Place provides homeless women and their children with programs and goods to help them restore their lives. To manage the high volume of women who check in and out of the resource center on a daily basis, Mary’s Place reached out to the AlphaCard Cares Donation Program, a charitable branch of AlphaCard.  After learning more about Mary’s Place and its mission, AlphaCard decided to donate a complete ID card system.

With the new ID card system, Mary’s Place will be able to print photo identification cards for women utilizing the center’s programs.  Brian Wisti, one of the organization’s volunteers, has developed a web-based tool for Mary’s Place that’s designed to store information, monitor check-ins, keep track of incentive points for women who do chores, and make note of any security concerns. Now the platform can be integrated with the new ID card system.

The ID card system donated by AlphaCard includes a printer, digital camera, PVC cards, and ribbon. If you know of a nonprofit who could benefit from a new ID card system, we encourage you to visit our AlphaCard Cares page.

Package delivered! Mary’s Place opens up their new ID Card System:

Shock and disgust at the idea that I might be Lawful Good after all.

I’m so ashamed.
