SCHOOL PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM
Putting new technology in area schools
Arvig’s School Partnership Program gives customers the option to designate $1 from their internet payment each month—at no extra cost to them—to a school in the Arvig service area. Arvig created the program to offset the cost of technology and supplies for area schools—giving students and teachers access to the technology they need most. Since its creation in 2010, the program has generated more than $1 million to provide laptops, tablets, technology and supplies for schools in the service area.

EDUCATIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS
Investing in success
Arvig established the Royale B. and Eleanor M. Arvig Memorial Scholarship Fund to emphasize higher education and encourage future leaders to create and maintain strong, vibrant communities that will lead to growing the rural economy and shaping a prosperous future. More than $100,000 in scholarship funding is awarded annually to high school students in the Arvig service area. In addition, Arvig offers the Foundation for Rural Service scholarship and the Minnesota Telecom Alliance Foundation scholarship as additional avenues to help propel the academic careers of area students.
PARADE PARTNERS
Community support
Arvig is proud to help raise awareness and shine a spotlight on the non-profit groups who do so much to strengthen our local communities. Every summer, local non-profit groups partner with Arvig to participate in several community parades around the region. The groups carry the Arvig banner and hand out toys and candy to parade-goers. In exchange for representing Arvig, the groups receive a $200 donation to benefit their organization and benefit their important local mission.
What They’re Saying
“The Arvig family has always been at the forefront of a lot of nice fundraisers and donations. They’ve always encouraged their employees to be involved in the community. Not only have they done a great job of growing their business, they’ve done a great job growing the community. They’ve donated millions back to the communities they’re in—especially Perham, so I thank you.”
— Dennis Happel, Perham
