The Infrastructure Initiative program formalizes the CAP COM Cares Foundation’s commitment to be a strong community partner and support projects that nonprofits often find difficult to fund. Some examples of projects that inspired the initiative include technology, HVAC and security upgrades as well as a variety of physical improvements such as a new roof, ramps and grounds improvement. These projects are vital for organizations to serve their constituents but can be delayed or unaddressed due to a lack of resources.
