Toshiba America Business Solutions announced this week that it had donated a multifunction printer to the Crazy Horse Memorial Foundation.
The Crazy Horse Memorial Foundation is a public charity and humanitarian project that protects and preserves the culture and heritage of the North American Indians. It is also home to the biggest mountain carving in the world.
The OEM’s e-STUDIO™ 4505AC was donated to the Foundation “to help support the Foundation’s educational and cultural programming mission of preserving the rich culture of Native Americans throughout America.”
The Toshiba MFP “will address the diverse document management needs” of the Indian University of North America, which is a collaboration between the Foundation and the University of South Dakota, and is situated within the Memorial’s visitor complex in the Black Hills.
The MFP will be used by students, staff, professors and administrators to create “a vast array of materials to better enhance the learning experience inside and outside the classroom.”
Crazy Horse Memorial President and Chief Operating Officer Dr. Laurie Becvar, direct overseer of the programming of the Indian University of North America, said, “We cannot thank Toshiba enough for donating the color, multifunction printer. Having this high-quality copier onsite at the University was so needed; students, professors, residential staff, and administrators will use the copier. Their ability to make copies and prepare high-quality documents onsite for a range of activities, including transportation schedules, student internship assignments, cultural experience announcements, and faculty and student class presentations is so valuable.”
Crazy Horse Memorial CEO Jadwiga Ziolkowski stated, “Toshiba’s charitable gift to our Indian University of North America program is significant and fulfills a great need, we are very grateful to the leadership team of Toshiba.”
“As the digital signage provider of Crazy Horse Memorial, our team understands the unique value the Indian University of North America provides its students and surrounding community,” said Bill Melo, Toshiba America Business Solutions chief marketing executive. “Sharing the organization’s passion to protect and preserve the culture and traditions of North American Indians made our donation all the more gratifying.”
