Berachah Church 2022
Third Annual #TeksGiving to Donate a Comprehensive Church Tech Upgrade
TeKnowledge World Wide, a collective of like-minded individuals in the technology industry who share knowledge and seek to make positive and impactful changes in the community, has chosen the Berachah Church of Cheltenham, PA, as the recipient of its third #TeksGiving technology upgrade. The collective raised funds for the upgrade via the Pledge It online crowdfunding platform. The goal for this project was $25,000.
This year’s recipient, Berachah Church, is a church that works to serve people in the Cheltenham community and around the world in a variety of ways, most notably by providing temporary housing and a rotating food pantry. The 150k technology upgrades that will be donated include an update of the Church’s security system to keep the congregation safe and an update of its WiFi equipment so that the church can connect with the community and the world on a larger scale.
The rising cost of technology to protect communities like Berachah Church is out of reach for so many,” said Ray Cline, President of TeKnowledge World Wide. “To alleviate that burden, we have a growing network of World Wide IT professionals who donate both state-of-art products and their time to make these projects possible. We are proud to work with Berachah Church to upgrade their technology so that they can use it for the benefit of the people they minster to.

“We are so thankful at Berachah Church for the generous services of Teknowledge,” said Wilson Bever, lead pastor. “They have gone above and beyond in their desire to serve our church body by providing us with services and equipment we could have never afforded on our own. Their gracious donation of time and talent will make a direct impact on the quality of services we provide to children and youth in the years to come, and will allow them to have the resources they need to work efficiently and effectively.”
