IRVINE, CA--(Marketwire - December 22, 2009) - Sage North America announced today the Sage
Community Service awards for 2009, which recognizes Sage Business Solutions
(SBS) partners exemplifying outstanding commitments to social
responsibility to their communities. Winners of the first two Sage
Community Service awards are Bredet Services Inc., Oakville, Ontario CN and
DSD Business Systems, San Diego, CA.
"At Sage, we believe that businesses and people alike lead by example, and
that is why we consider corporate responsibility both a privilege and a
duty," said Jodi Uecker-Rust, president, Sage Business Solutions division.
"We are proud to acknowledge and thank the people at Bredet Services and
DSD Business Systems for the work that has earned them our first Sage
Community Service awards."
Bredet Services Inc. helps generate tens of thousands of dollars for
national and local charities such as the Children's Wish Foundation, the
Terry Fox Run and the Canadian Cancer Society. At Christmas time the
company sends care packages to troops in Afghanistan, as well as
underprivileged children. For more than 25 years Bredet Services Inc. also
has specialized in supporting Sage ERP customers with the same passion.
DSD Business Systems is grounded in the belief that responsibility,
compassion and dedication to one's community are the true measurements of
business success. From co-sponsoring San Diego's Adopt-a-Family at
Christmas and Hire-a-Youth Programs, to extensive volunteer work in the
county's educational system, the company truly embraces corporate
citizenship. Established in 1984, DSD Business Systems brings similar
dedication to the pursuit of helping Sage customers with a full line of
integrated Sage business management solutions.
The Sage Community Service awards are part of the Sage Partner Advantage
Award Series, which honors business partners for a variety of outstanding
achievements. Business partners receiving the Sage Community Service awards
have raised the bar in terms of corporate responsibility, recognizing the
need to give back to the community through volunteerism and charity work.
Nominations were submitted by Sage business partners and Sage employees
with selections being made by a Sage executive committee.
Distinction as a Sage Community Service award recipient includes an
invitation to the exclusive President's Circle. All Sage Partner Advantage
Award Series recipients will be honored at an official awards ceremony at
the luxurious Biltmore Resort and Spa in Phoenix, Arizona, January 25-27,
2010.
