Spectrum and its employees believe in giving back to the community.  Our employees are actively involved in the communities we live in as volunteers -- social outreach, sport and academic coaching, charitable fundraising, community governance -- and financial donors to help make a difference in the lives of our family, friends, and neighbors.

Below are just a few of the community efforts in which Spectrum participates or sponsors:

	Spectrum and its employees enjoy and appreciate the parks in their communities. On May 6, 2006, Spectrum gave back to its parks in Fairfax County as a corporate sponsor of the Cross County Trailfest an exciting multi-community event. The Cross County Trail (CCT) is the primary north/south multi-use trail in Fairfax County, VA that stretches 40 miles from the Potomac River to the Occoquan River. Trailfest celebrated the grand opening of the CCT featuring dozens of programs and activities along the trail. Spectrum was the sponsor of the Lake Accotink section of the trail.
	Spectrum enjoys making Christmas a little more special for families in need through annual participation in Our Lady of Good Counsel's Christmas Adopt-a-Family program.  Shopping, wrapping and delivering gifts to local families is an annual activity that Spectrum employees really get into!
	Spectrum supports Our Daily Bread and Housing & Community Services of Northern Virginia with food drive and delivery support for households in need in the Northern Virginia area.
