SRT Communications hosted a rural prosperity workshop for enriching communities, helping leaders of Smart Rural Communities in its service territory learn about funding opportunities and resources available from federal, local, regional and nonprofit experts. This included information on economic and community development grant programs, funding for water and energy projects and SRT’s own giving program, SRT Cares.

Impact
STE partnered with a local contractor to build a network in Norwood, Missouri, more than 100 miles from its central office.

Surry Communications worked with local leaders to deploy a free community Wi-Fi network throughout downtown Mount Airy, helping visitors, businesses and event organizers stay connected. The network enhances tourism, supports local commerce and strengthens public safety communications during community events.
