Frontier donated high-speed fiber internet to the Boys & Girls Club of Ridgefield through our Broadband for Good program. The Boys & Girls Club offers thousands of kids in the community a safe place to learn and grow. Our donation provides the club with a fast, reliable connection to support its youth development programs.  

 Why we chose the Boys & Girls Club of Ridgefield

From homework help to computer access for research, the Boys & Girls Club provides underserved youth of Ridgefield the essential resources, skills, and opportunities they need to achieve their full potential. The club has over 3,000 registered members, with 35% receiving financial aid, and partners with 40 youth-serving organizations in the area, including Ridgefield Public Schools. 

 “The Boys & Girls Club of Ridgefield serves as a home for kids in our community. It is a safe place that they can count on to come learn, grow and play, no matter their background, and we are especially grateful to have a fast, reliable connection we can count on to support all we do here at the club,” said Mike Flynn, CEO, the Boys & Girls Club of Ridgefield. “Many kids count on doing their homework at our center because they don’t have the technology they need at home. Thanks to Frontier’s donation of fiber internet, we can offer the critical connectivity that the kids need and will be able to expand our programs too.”

 “We welcome Frontier’s donation of fiber services to our local Boys & Girls Club,” said Rudy Marconi, Ridgefield First Selectperson. “The Boys & Girls Club is a crucial support system for our youth, and it's exciting that Frontier has selected the organization as their latest Broadband for Good recipient.”
