Making a Difference
We are committed to the communities where our team members live and work. We recognize investing in our youth and their futures is how we build positive, healthy places to live. That’s why youth development – including initiatives that provide youth with opportunities for education and leadership, positive environments to learn and grow, and access to technology – is a core focus of Alaska Communications’ commitment to responsible corporate citizenship. That’s also why we started the Summer of Heroes scholarship program.
Community Support
We support our employees —
who support our communities
Through our Alaska Communications Employee Volunteer Grant Program we are proud to support our people, contributing up to $500 to any eligible non-profit at which our employees volunteer 20 or more hours per calendar year.
To see if your organization is one we can work with in the future, please email us at letsbetteralaska@acsalaska.com.
A group of employees participate in JA in a Day at Klatt Elementary School in Anchorage. This program from Junior Achievement of Alaska brings members of the business community into our schools to share the importance of financial literacy.
PART OF THE TEAM
We’re helping give a new local sports program the home ice advantage. We’re powering the Anchorage Wolverines.
Hockey is a big part of our Alaska lifestyle, and the Wolverines offer a hat-trick of things we love: bringing the community together, supporting young athletes and providing hard-hitting entertainment.
We hope to see you at a game!
Bridging the Digital Divide
“There is no better time than now to connect our communities,” said Aaron Schutt, President and CEO of Doyon, Limited.
We couldn’t agree more. The Alaska FiberOptic Project is a collaboration between Calista Corporation, Doyon Limited, Gana-A 'Yoo Limited, Tanana Chiefs Conference, and Alaska Communications to provide reliable, high-speed broadband in up to 23 unserved communities along the Yukon and Kuskokwim Rivers. The project will bridge the digital divide for many rural communities, providing access to virtual meetings, online classes, telehealth and online jobs without having to compromise their village way of life.
