July 1, 2011: SednaVoice has put its voice behind the hardworking team at BullyingCanada—young people speaking out about bullying and victimization in our schools, parks, streets and homes. This spring, SednaVoice donated one of its feature-rich Hosted BPX phone systems to the Ontario-based charity, installed and customized to meet the charity’s specific needs. BullyingCanada is dependent on reliable, sophisticated telephone systems and equipment for facilitating group conference, one-to-one telephone calls, and “bullying” talk through a national hotline.

“The Hosted PBX phone system for BullyingCanada gives us everything that a large charity enjoys, at a cost we can afford,” says Rob Frenette, founder of BullingCanada. “It also means that our staff and volunteers won’t waste valuable time managing the system, or spend extra money every time they want to upgrade or add a phone line.”

SednaVoice systems are specifically designed for smaller organizations and companies that require a sophisticated phone system at an affordable cost. BullyingCanada is working hard to be a national voice for youth, parents and educators across Canada on the complex issue of bullying. The charity offers a national toll-free line for youth, parents, and up to date information related to bullying, in both English and French.

1 out of 4 kids are bullied, one out of 5 kids are the bully and that 282,000 high school kids are attacked each month nationally. Not only can bullying be deadly, it also takes an enormous emotional toll on its victims. Following on their tag line, “Listen and Speak Up!” BullyingCanada encourages kids and youth to speak up anytime their experience bullying, either directed at themselves or others. The charity was founded by two youth, Rob Frenette, 20 and Katie Neu, 18, determined to help stop bullying.
