July 11, 2023

KEV Group, the leading provider of school activity fund management software, today announced the acquisition of Washington-based InTouch Receipting. With a combined customer base of 22,000 schools, the acquisition further solidifies the company’s position in the K-12 school activity fund management space and will allow KEV to deliver an expanded offering to school districts across North America.

“The acquisition of InTouch is a continuation of the strategic investments we’ve been making to deliver increased value to our customers,” said Bram Belzberg, Chairman and CEO of KEV Group. “Adding InTouch to the KEV family made perfect sense given their stellar reputation for exceeding customer expectations and their deep expertise in the K-12 space. This, coupled with the incredible synergies between our two organizations, will enable us to innovate more quickly and deliver enhanced solutions and services to support our customers’ evolving needs.”

“For more than 30 years, we’ve focused our efforts on delivering innovative solutions that make it easy for students and parents to make in-person and online payments, while streamlining reporting and audits for finance personnel,” said Arnold Mortzheim, ITR co-founder, who, along with co-founder Diane Mortzheim will continue to work in senior leadership roles at KEV Group. “We’re excited to make even more of an impact as part of KEV.”

Terms of the agreement have been finalized but were not disclosed.
