July 9, 2024 – Independence, Kan.Sparklight®, a leading broadband communications provider, recently awarded $1,000 to Community Crisis Team through the company’s Charitable Giving Fund. The organization was one of 26 nonprofits across the company’s 24-state footprint that received grants totaling more than $125,000 during the company’s most recent award period.

The Community Crisis Team serves individuals and families needing urgent crisis assistance to help keep them safe, off the streets and in their homes.

“The Community Crisis Team thanks Sparklight for its Charitable Giving Fund award,” said Avery Sanchez, Community Crisis Team board member. “As an all-volunteer organization, support from benefactors like Sparklight is crucial. The donation will be used in our community to provide crisis relief in housing, hunger and abuse situations.”

The Charitable Giving Fund, which annually awards $250,000 in grants to 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations in communities served by the Cable One family of brands (Sparklight®, Fidelity Communications, Hargray, ValuNet Fiber and CableAmerica), concentrates support in the following priority areas:

All associates are encouraged to use an annual “Angel Day” funded by the company to volunteer for a philanthropy of their choice.

Nonprofit organizations may apply for a Sparklight Charitable Giving Fund grant during open application periods each spring and fall.
