Community Giving
AP&T Community Impact
Beyond providing essential services, we invest in local programs that strengthen and enrich our towns. Through our Charitable Contributions Fund, we support projects and initiatives that make a positive impact.
We also stay involved by participating in local events, offering sponsorships for individuals and teams, encouraging employee volunteerism, and providing in‑kind support such as event broadband, Wi‑Fi, and banner installation.
To request support fill out the Charitable Contribution request form, or visit your local AP&T office.
Please note:
Requests for Individual or Team Sponsorships, Promotional Partnerships and In-Kind services (ie:, event broadband, WI-FI, event banner installation, etc) can be sent to:

These requests are not part of the AP&T Charitable Contribution Request.
