ETC's iRFR and aRFR Apps Support Behind the Scenes

ETC's David Lincecum and Mark Vassallo present a check from ETC to members of the PLASA Foundation Board of Directors for Behind the Scenes.

At the USITT show in March, Mark Vassallo and David Lincecum of ETC presented a check for $15,205.60 to Behind the Scenes, which reflected ongoing proceeds from sales of ETC's iRFR and aRFR (radio focus remote) application for iOS and Android devices.

"We're thrilled to once again be able to donate the proceeds from the sale of our iRFR and aRFR apps to Behind the Scenes" commented ETC CEO Fred Foster. "When we first introduced the apps, we couldn't have imagined that hundreds of thousands of dollars would be raised for such an important organization. Just by doing something so simple -- downloading an app -- our customers have collectively made a huge impact in the lives of their fellow technicians."

These apps, developed by ETC software engineers Chris Mizerak and Anders Ekvall continue to be incredibly popular and bring ETC's total Behind the Scenes contributions to date to over $205,000.

Rick Rudolph, chair of the PLASA Foundation, responded, "ETC's donations through our Pledge-a-Product program have helped our industry colleagues who are ill or injured stay in their homes, keep their utilities turned on, or get the medical care they so desperately need. It's not possible to overstate the importance of what ETC is doing."

Behind the Scenes provides entertainment technology industry members who are ill or injured with grants that may be used for basic living and medical expenses. For more information about Behind the Scenes, to donate, or to apply for a grant, visit the URL below.
