Supporting Communities
As members of communities who live in the places that we provide service, cable operators and TV programmers understand and embrace their role as positive contributors to society. From recruiting and hiring thousands of veterans, supporting hundreds of local community programs, and actively volunteering to improve the lives of our customers, the cable industry has a long-standing commitment to be a force for good in urban and rural communities. Annually, we donate millions to efforts that include everything from enhancing student learning and digital literacy, to restoring and rebuilding towns after natural disasters, and much more.
Veterans Thrive in the Cable Industry
Military veterans have long been an outstanding talent pool with extensive leadership and teamwork experience. Since so many men and women return home and seek careers, cable companies actively recruit and hire military veterans for all types of careers.
Below is small sampling of efforts to honor and recruit America’s veterans into the cable workforce, where their background and skillsets will benefit where customers, communities and fellow employees.
