Provides critical connectivity for organization that is supporting victims of devastating wildfires with free meals, emergency housing and other essential relief
What’s Happening: Frontier donated high-speed, reliable fiber internet to the North Valley Caring Services (NVCS), a main evacuation hub for wildfire victims of Los Angeles, through our Broadband for Good Program.
What’s Broadband for Good: Broadband for Good is our commitment to advancing digital inclusion and strengthening the communities we serve. This program supports our purpose of Building Gigabit America by using our fiber technology and resources to connect more people to the digital society.
Why we chose NVCS Food Pantry: The organization has been named one of the official evacuation hub by Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and is distributing essential supplies including food and water, helping displaced families connect with loved ones and giving Californians access to critical resources that will help them begin to rebuild their lives. Our teammates in LA worked quickly to install fiber to NVCS to ensure they had the strongest internet connection possible to provide emergency relief to the community.
Frontier x California: As California rebuilds, we are working hand-in-hand with local partners to ensure communities have access to the resources they need. Our fiber technology powers LA County’s most critical public services, including fire stations, police stations and other core infrastructure network services.
Handy Quote: “We are part of this community. Our employees live and work here, and we will be here every step of the way as California works to recover and emerge as an even stronger community,” said Veronica Bloodworth, Chief Network Officer of Frontier. “We’re working closely with government agencies, 911 centers and power companies to ensure our connectivity is strong in the most critical moments – keeping people safe as they continue to navigate the devastation from the ongoing wildfires and handle emergencies. Whether it’s enabling first responders, providing our customers with support, or partnering with nonprofits who are making a big difference, we are here to help.”
