Since Ting came to Sandpoint in 2018, the internet company has not only been providing “super crazy fast fiber internet” to the greater Sandpoint area but also has become a very giving part of the community.
That dedication to the community has earned Ting honors as the Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce’s Business of the Month for September.
Ting’s culture is about giving back and being an active and engaged member of every community they are in.
Ting has memberships with the Bonner County Economic Development Corporation, the Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce, the Rotary Club of Ponderay and the Selkirk Association of Realtors. They help sponsor over 40 area events including the Angels Over Sandpoint Lazy-A Fun Run, The Bonner County Fair and Rodeo, The Bonner General Heart Ball, Lost in the ’50s, The Festival at Sandpoint, the Summer Music Series in Farmin Park as well as Pend Oreille Arts Council events, Panida events, the Pend Oreille Bay Trail, Ponderay Neighbor Day, The Lions Club, and so much more!
They also provide free internet access to the food bank, the library, and the Veterans of Foreign Wars post.
