We’re so proud of our generous employees in Hudson, N.H., who raised funds to provide 15 local families with Chromebooks. The new computers will support students in need as they engage in remote learning during the school year. Totaling $3,000, the donation was raised through individual donations to an employee-sponsored campaign on GoFundMe plus a company matching contribution.

Jon Saunders, vice president and general manager, and several Intervala employees presented the donation to Rich Paiva, career development coordinator for the Hudson School District, during a brief ceremony outside our manufacturing facility last week.

“With resources going to PPE, changing how we teach, work, interact with students and a myriad of other logistics, it has been a difficult and trying start to the year,” said Rich. “Your contribution will be huge in helping students be successful.”

Kudos to our bighearted employees in Hudson for supporting their community and helping local students have the educational tools they need!
