AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Abila, the leading provider of software and services to associations, nonprofits, and government entities, announced today Meals on Wheels America is using Abila netFORUM Enterprise™ to enhance easy access to data, resources, and opportunities to self-service for its community-based members across the country that are dedicated to addressing senior isolation and hunger.

In February, Meals on Wheels America launched its rebranding and name change (from Meals on Wheels Association of America), a foundational step to building the capacity needed to serve the rapidly growing demand for Meals on Wheels' services in America. The netFORUM Enterprise implementation is a core component to the overall organization transformation.

"We needed a centralized system that could grow with our organization and bring our members along the journey with the changes we are making to help us all better achieve our mission," said Don Miller, chief financial and administrative officer for Meals on Wheels America. "netFORUM Enterprise provides the best combination of ease-of-use and flexibility. We now have a system that makes life easier on the internal staff and delivers more value to the local member communities."

Key benefits of netFORUM Enterprise for Meals on Wheels America:  

• Centralized core system that can manage all data in one place
• Integrations with other key member management systems
• Improves and documents new business processes to the system workflows
• Flexibility for internal staff
