Spectrum Awards $1K to Brooklyn Community Organization Matthew 25

Spectrum today announced a donation of $1,000 to Brooklyn’s Matthew 25 in Action, as part of the company’s community philanthropic program, Spectrum Employee Community Grants.

The funding will support Matthew 25 in Action by providing more care packages for the homeless shelters in the community and help children in the neighborhood with a back-to-school
supplies giveaway.

The donation was presented July 21 to Matthew 25 in Action at its weekly ministry meeting at its Winthrop Street headquarters in Brooklyn.

“Through Spectrum Employee Community Grants, we’re proud to provide support to vital community organizations with which our local employees are already volunteering their
time and talent,” said Rodney Capel, Spectrum vice president of Government
Affairs in New York City. “Together, we’re building stronger communities where our customers and employees live and work across America.”

“This donation will enable us to help more people in our community, said Tabitha Douyon, ministry director for Matthew 25 in Action. “We are grateful for Spectrum for its support in
helping people that need it most in our community.”

Spectrum employee Jessee Joseph, who nominated Matthew 25 in Action for support, said, “It makes me feel proud to be a part of a company that is helping community organizations through
Spectrum Employee Community Grants.”

In its inaugural year, Spectrum Employee Community Grants provides funding to local nonprofits throughout the company’s 41-state service area. Recipients deliver critical social services,
helping underserved residents meet basic needs, including food, shelter, clothing, job training and neighborhood safety. Each awardee is nominated by one of the company’s 98,000 U.S. employees who has volunteered with the organization for at least one year.
