VoIP Supply Builds a Culture Of Giving Back

As the first Certified B Corporation (B Corp) in Western New York, VoIP Supply has been devoting their time and money to the local charities at least once a month including the ongoing $1.98 meal donation program: one meal cost donated to Buffalo City Mission with every order placed. (Thanks to our customers being part of our charity effort!)

 

Giving Back Is Part of VoIP Supply’s Mission

Unlike other technology companies, VoIP Supply invests its resources in the local community, redefining what it means to be a successful business. Aside from providing remarkable VoIP solutions and customer services, VoIP Supply also devotes themselves to bounding with the community and making a change in the society. 

“No one is too small to make a difference. We like to give all VoIP Supply employees the opportunity in giving back to the local community.” says Ben Sayers, CEO of VoIP Supply.

 

Putting Words Into Action

In October 2015, VoIP Supply posted employee pictures on Mix96 Facebook page, holding up signs of their “tata” names to support the Breast Cancer Awareness event for Susan G. Komen, who donated $1 per name.

In December 2015, VoIP Supply employees also donated 30 gift tags, total value $900, to the Giving Tree at the Eastern Hills Mall which was sponsored by the Family Help Center helping children in need.

Our charity work never ends and we have many more contributions planned for 2016!
