Spectrum recognizes Whitley County DAV

Date:

Spectrum recently joined Kentucky State Senate President Robert Stivers and Whitley County Judge-Executive Pat White Jr. at the Whitley County Disabled American Veterans Association to honor and celebrate veterans on Veterans Day and present a $5,000 contribution in support of the organization’s mission.

The Disabled American Veterans (DAV) group empowers veterans to lead high-quality lives by ensuring they can access the full range of benefits available to them. DAV works to educate the public about the great sacrifices and needs of veterans transitioning back to civilian life.

This partnership between DAV and Spectrum will further support the DAV’s mission in Whitley County.

Whitley County DAV Commander Roy Siler said that the money will be used to replace a retaining wall at the DAV’s facility.

The Whitley County High School JROTC presented the colors at the start of the event.

Spectrum has been recognized as a “Best Employer for Veterans” since 2021 by Forbes for its efforts to hire and retain veteran employees. Spectrum has also been named a 2024 Top Veteran Employer by Military.com, and earned Gold distinction as a Military Friendly® Employer for both 2023 and 2024. Veterans make up nearly 10 percent of the company’s workforce.

Spectrum is a suite of advanced communications services offered by Charter Communications Inc., a leading broadband connectivity company and cable operator with services available to more than 58 million homes and businesses in 41 states.
