Community Relations

About

Whether we're bringing technology to local businesses, supporting education or volunteering, FairPoint's community relations program is founded on a single idea: We are all connected. Our goal is to use our resources to unify and strengthen the communities where we live, work and do business.

Building vibrant communities calls for a comprehensive approach. That's why we focus on three main areas: charitable giving, community partnerships and economic development.

Our charitable giving is focused on education, cultural enrichment and initiatives that support safe and healthy communities.

We are proud to be active and engaged community partners. Our people lead and participate in organizations that benefit the community. We provide financial support to worthy causes. We devote countless hours each year to helping others through volunteer work.

We also harness the considerable expertise of our leadership and employees to actively build and support strong economic development programs.
