Singlewire Software and The 'I Love U Guys' Foundation Unite to Enhance School Safety Response Strategies

Singlewire Software Joins Forces with The 'I Love U Guys' Foundation



In a significant move towards enhancing school safety, Singlewire Software has announced its partnership with The 'I Love U Guys' Foundation. This collaboration aims to provide effective training and resources designed to tackle response and reunification challenges faced by educational institutions during critical situations.

Founded in Madison, Wisconsin, Singlewire Software specializes in solutions that prioritize the safety and communication of organizations and their members. With a commitment to social responsibility, the company has embraced the mission of The 'I Love U Guys' Foundation, a national nonprofit established by Ellen and John-Michael Keyes in the wake of their daughter's tragic death during a school shooting in 2006. The foundation's work focuses on implementing programs and training that standardize crisis response across schools, thereby fostering a safer environment for students and staff.

Terry Swanson, President and CEO of Singlewire Software, stated, "Our partnership with The 'I Love U Guys' Foundation allows us to integrate their proven crisis response frameworks directly into our InformaCast solution. This means schools now have access to both industry-leading notification systems and vital training resources for emergencies."

The collaboration leverages Singlewire’s existing software tools, integrating licensed icons and procedures from the foundation's Standard Response Protocol (SRP). This means schools can now utilize practical icons and messages tailored to the SRP, aligning their training more closely with real-world scenarios. By providing tools that schools can use in both training and actual emergencies, the goal is to improve the overall readiness and response capabilities of educational institutions in critical situations.

According to Pat Hamilton, Alliance Director for The 'I Love U Guys' Foundation, “Over 50,000 educational institutions and organizations rely on our training programs. Partnering with companies like Singlewire enables us to amplify our impact, equipping schools with effective safety measures that align with our response protocols.” This partnership not only enhances the software's offerings but also aligns with the foundation's vision of restoring and preserving the joy of childhood through proactive safety measures.

The significance of this partnership extends beyond mere software integration; it represents a collaborative effort to enhance student and staff safety during crises. With escalating concerns around school safety, having robust measures in place has never been more crucial. The 'I Love U Guys' Foundation's frameworks, developed through extensive research and collaboration with educational leaders, public safety experts, and psychological professionals, provide an essential resource for schools nationwide.
