Sponsorships & Fundraising
While we support our employees having interests outside of work, it is important that you do not intentionally or inadvertently indicate potential support from Spectrum for any one group through sponsorship or fundraising efforts.
Wearing the Spectrum logo non-Spectrum events. This may place Spectrum in an unfavorable position or otherwise reflect poorly on the company.
Behavior that may reflect poorly on Spectrum.
Active solicitations, sanctioned sales, and pressure to participate in the support of charities and “causes” except those officially sanctioned by the company (example: Girl Scout Cookies).
Using company intranet, email or equipment/materials for solicitations of any sort.
Equal access is given to an employee’s charitable interest for inactive solicitation and utilization of company facilities (i.e. conference rooms).
All employees must practice tolerance for equality and rights of other employees and sensitivity to diverse perspectives.
The Spectrum Foundation will generally guide donations and community service sponsorship for the organization.
Only members of the Executive Staff or Directors as delegated may approve corporate sponsorship; no other employee may obligate the company or its resources to any sponsorship.
A: The Spectrum Foundation was implemented in January 2009 to satisfy the growing demand of Spectrum employees to support and participate in charitable efforts at a corporate level. The Foundation, a donor-advised fund under the Virginia Community Foundation, serves as the governing body for all of Spectrum's charitable giving with fifty percent of the proceeds from the Foundation supporting the military. The Foundation has raised over $25,000 to date.
