WIRES, in partnership with Everbridge, continues to expand its reach. Through this "collaborative rescue" program, volunteers from other animal rescue organisations are incorporated into the Everbridge-WIRES platform, allowing WIRES to instantly broadcast notifications to appropriately trained volunteers, no matter what organisation they are from, getting help to more animals even faster. "Donating our services to WIRES was an easy decision for us," said Steve Foster, Everbridge Vice President – Australia, New Zealand & Oceania. "It's critical that the growing number of WIRES volunteers receive and share the incident information they need to save these animals, many of which are already on Australia's endangered species list. It is a no-brainer to help enable organisations like WIRES to supplement their skill sets in the same way we assist IT professionals in a business environment."
