About Canal Alliance

Canal Alliance is a nonprofit champion of immigrants who are challenged by a lack of resources and an unfamiliar environment.

Canal Alliance educates, empowers, supports, and partners with motivated immigrants and their families to best meet all their unique needs—from putting food on the table, to becoming U.S. citizens, to learning English, to graduating from college to gaining skills that lead to quality jobs with career-path employment opportunities.

Because when we support immigrants, Marin becomes a place where everyone can live, learn, work, and succeed.

PCS Technology & Canal Alliance

Before choosing to partner with PCS Technology, Canal Alliance had adequate technology, but no clear strategy or direction.

In our partnership with Canal Alliance, we provide consulting and strategic direction, while their own IT team implements our solutions.
We have helped them to save thousands of dollars a month and improve their efficiency by:

  • Transitioning to Microsoft Azure

  • Providing end-user security training

  • Implementing Vonage voIP solutions

  • Upgrading their internet and WiFi access

Thanks to PCS, our new IT infrastructure is faster, more responsive, and less frustrating. Our IT costs are also far lower and more predictable. All of this allows us to better serve our mission and support immigrants in Marin County.
