WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., July 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Cydcor, the leading provider of outsourced, face-to-face sales teams, has announced that its Neighborhood Leader Program, an internal program available to Cydcor's network of independently-owned sales offices, has helped a significant number of charitable organizations throughout the United States and Canada.

Through the Neighborhood Leader Program:  

• The network of nearly 200 independent Cydcor sales offices located across the United States and Canada are given financial sponsorships.
• The offices are encouraged to donate their time and talent to non-profit, charitable organizations in their communities.
• Cydcor provides a contribution match to help support the volunteer effort. 
• Each independent Cydcor office is eligible to take advantage of the Neighborhood Leader Program once each year. 

To date, approximately 800 team members from sales offices throughout the country have dedicated almost 400 hours to their local communities through volunteer work and donations since the program's inception. They've served 46 organizations, as shown in the Cydcor Neighborhood Leader video.

"These numbers are truly astounding," said Gary Polson, CEO of Cydcor. "Since the program's inception, we have been able to make a significant difference in our local communities. More sales offices are taking advantage of this valuable program and making the ritual of giving back a major goal. I'm so proud of their commitment and dedication."

Organizations helped in various local communities through the Neighborhood Leader Program include The American Red Cross, Kids Help Phone, The Midwest Food Bank, The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, Race for the Cure, Baby DJ, and the Strides Against Cancer Walk.

Team members from the independently-owned sales offices have also hosted fundraising events such as bowl-a-thons, fun and games days, and sports tournaments for Operation Smile, a worldwide medical charity that provides free surgeries for children born with facial deformities. The network of sales offices have contributed greatly through their own fundraising efforts – competing against each other to raise a cumulative total of $150,000, which will fund a medical mission to remote locales in Peru, Cambodia or Rwanda.

"I'm extremely proud of our network of sales offices for all that they accomplished and are continuing to accomplish every day," said Vera Quinn, senior vice president of sales operations. "Giving back to the communities they live in is an extremely important thing to do – it shows respect and dedication to their day-to-day environment. Like with everything they set out to accomplish, the Neighborhood Leader opportunity is one that each and every office has committed to head-on."
