Altice Employees Volunteer with Island Harvest's Weekend Backpack Program
Congressman Lee Zeldin joined Altice employee volunteers as they assembled special packs of nutritious food to be distributed to over 1,700 children participating in Island Harvest’s Weekend Backpack Program, which provides meals on weekends for students who depend on school breakfasts and lunches and may not have access to consistent meals when school is out. Island Harvest and Altice are partnering together to promote broadband adoption and help bridge the digital divide. Island Harvest is a leading hunger-relief organization that provides food and other resources to children, senior citizens, veterans, and others at risk of food insecurity.
