The CK Daily – CK Giving to Frankie and Andy’s Place
Happy Wednesday! Shanyce is going to be out for a bit, so you may see some new names over the next few weeks but I’m going to kick it off! I’m Sue and I’ve been with CK for quite some time. I enjoyed our CK Giving efforts and love that we get to be a part of this each year.
I chose to give my CK Giving donation to Frankie and Andy’s Place. I volunteer weekly here and believe in what they do and how they do it. They rescue senior dogs that have been abandoned by their owners and give them a forever home at their senior dog sanctuary, saving them from a near-certain death sentence at animal control. Most are 13+ and have health issues. The dogs live out the time they have left in doggie luxury. 🙂 FAAP believes that dogs, like people, need a “purpose” so they do community visits to nearby schools, assisted living facilities, and adult daycare centers.

Servers are the workhorse of your network. They store your data, act as a web server, house your entire email library, run your applications, and occasionally act as your print server. When your computer dies and you lose all of your files, who is there? Your file server is there to save the day.
Blade servers are specifically designed to pack a lot of power in a small space. Blade servers can be used as a dedicated server or added to a virtual environment. The user is able to condense their server footprint and easily manage multiple servers from one point. Since they are smaller in nature, they have a better overall power consumption. The Dell M620 offers scalability along with an energy-efficient server that will give you a low cost of ownership over its lifetime.
