(PRWeb) February 21, 2007 -- Omvox Telecom™, an innovative communications service provider, has announced a grant program available to all elementary, middle and high schools in the United States, both public and private. Grants of up to $2,500 per school will be made after review of grant applications and can be used to fund its mass notification alerting system called ALERTIFY™. ALERTIFY™ helps schools close the parent-school communications gap through the use of e-mail and telephone. There are no prerequisites to qualify for the grant.

ALERTIFY™, a web hosted solution requiring no hardware or software to operate, allows a user to record a voice message and send it immediately to all your desired recipients with just one phone call. A message can reach thousands of people in minutes. Alerts and notifications can be sent to landlines, cellular phones (both text and voice) as well as in an e-mail.

Omvox Telecom's grant allowance program will follow strict grant committee guidelines to review applications for approval. If approved, ALERTIFY™ will award grants up to $500,000.00 in value.

"With ALERTIFY's new grant allowance program, schools that at one time may not have had access to such technologies, will no longer be forced to worry about relaying pertinent, sometimes life saving information to a large amount of people simultaneously ever again, or better yet, being able to afford to do so," stated Greg Cogen, Vice President of Business Development for Omvox Telecom™. Michael Self, CEO of Omvox Telecom says, "I'm very proud to be sponsoring this program. I feel it is our responsibility to lead by example in helping schools to be proactive in school-parent communications."

The grant application process is open to all schools in all districts. Applications are available immediately by contacting Kimberly Alsobrook, Director of Sales, toll free at 866-525-3784 ext. 257.
