Pulse Impact: Pulseaversary
At Pulse, community is at the heart of everything we do. As a community-owned utility, we’re driven to serve our local neighbors with world-class fiber internet and exceptional experiences. As members of the community ourselves, we believe in engaging locally through volunteerism, advocacy, and donating our skills and resources.
One of our community impact programs is our 2nd Pulseaversary recognition.
Each team at Pulse has identified a local non-profit organization that they are passionate about. Some are chosen based on staff involvement, and some have been selected because of personal connections.
On a customer’s 2nd “Pulseaversary,” we invite them to select one of the organizations from that list, and we make a small donation on their behalf.
Past organizations included in the Pulseaversary program include Health4Heroes, Loveland Habitat for Humanity, Loveland’s Community Kitchen, KidsPak, and Make-A-Wish Colorado.
We’re excited to share the current non-profits chosen by our employees!
