Spectrum Helps Appleton Homeowner
Spectrum and Rebuilding Together Fox Valley Assisted a Local Appleton Homeowner with Home Repairs and Handed out Safe and Healthy Home Kits.
More than 30 Spectrum employee volunteers were in Appleton today to support Charter Communications, Inc.’s first national philanthropic initiative, Spectrum Housing Assist.
In Appleton, Spectrum and Rebuilding Together Fox Valley brought the mission of safe and healthy homes to a homeowner named Lynn who suffered a stroke six years ago. The stroke confined her to a wheelchair and her physical limitations have impacted her ability to care for herself and her family.
Powered by Spectrum’s financial support and the expertise of Rebuilding Together Fox Valley, Spectrum employee volunteers completed the project by making modifications to Lynn’s home by widening doors, modifying her bathtub and working to make her home handicap accessible.

Since its inception, Spectrum Housing Assist has helped improve more than 16,000 homes. To learn more about Spectrum Housing Assist, visit responsibility.spectrum.com.
