E-mail marketing on Abcore Cadí will incorporate new technology!

E-mail marketing on Abcore Cadí will incorporate new technology!

From 15th October 2017, newsletters and the sending of mass mailings will operate with DKIM technology. This upgrade will not affect the user's experience on the Internet Service Platform. 

From 15th October, the e-mail marketing service of your NGO in Abcore Cadí, which includes newsletters and mass mailings, will go one step further. We are making significant improvements to this service through iWith.org, where we will be introducing DKIM technology. And what is DKIM technology? It is an e-mail authentication technology which enables the validation of emails by the receiver through a digital signature. SPAM originating from illegal servers would be reduced to zero if all the e-mail servers used DKIM authentication technology.

The Abcore Cadí Internet Service Platform was so far functioning with SPF (Sender Policy Framework) systems, and DKIM technology will now be added to it. This change will introduce its trial version starting from 1st October 2017, and will be fully available for all of the organisations, associations and NGOs that use the Abcore e-mail marketing service from the 15th of October.

We answer some of your doubts below:


I have understood, but… will my system be affected?

NO! The Abcore administrators will find that it is the same system, open and without major changes.
 

Will I need to do something during this period?

We recommend that, at least during the initial 15 days of the trial version, you contact soporte@iwith.org before clicking on "send", so we can monitor the process and complete the dispatch.
 

Is there a charge for this upgrade?

NO! The upgrade with DKIM technology does not have any additional costs.

Honoring the Bright Life of Sr. Jean Pruitt: A Message from Rev. Keishi Miyamoto

Honoring the Bright Life of Sr. Jean Pruitt: A Message from Rev. Keishi Miyamoto

IMG 5026 2

 

It is with shock and tremendous sadness that I received the news that Sr. Jean Pruitt, the first GNRC Coordinator for Africa, passed away recently. When I met her at the GNRC Fifth Forum in Panama City this May, she was as full of joy, humor and vigor as ever. She has dedicated her entire life to the children for Africa. Her work for and with children has touched countless lives and inspired people like me all around the world.

I first met Sr. Jean, who has run the Dogodogo Center for street children in Tanzania for decades, at the GNRC First Forum in Tokyo in 2000. Thanks to her support, we were able to invite street children served by the Center to the Conference of Children for Coming Generation that we held in Japan in 2000. The presentation made by Mr. George Daniel, one of the street children from the Center, inspired all the participants, including me, and after that, I personally exchanged letters with him for a while.

Sr. Jean was the very first person to translate our vision for interfaith cooperation for children through the Global Network of Religions for Children into specific, grassroots action to change children's lives in Africa. She organized the East and Southern Africa Network of Religions for Children (ESANRC), the first regional GNRC network in Africa, soon after the GNRC's inauguration in the year 2000 and served as the first GNRC Coordinator for Africa until Dr. Mustafa Ali, who is now GNRC Secretary General, assumed the position in 2003. She also served as Chair of the Local Hosting Committee and contributed to the successful GNRC Fourth Forum held in Tanzania in 2012. Following the Fifth Forum this year, she has been active in following up on the commitments in the Panama Declaration. Sr. Jean was a bright light, and that light she gave will continue to shine in all of our work. 

On behalf of Arigatou International, let me express my sincere condolences to her family, Maryknoll sisters, and to the GNRC Tanzania. We all mourn her and remember her for her tremendous contribution to the GNRC, and to the well-being of children in Africa and around the world. 

Farewell, Sr. Jean. We will miss you. Rest in peace.

Keishi Miyamoto

President, Arigatou International
