TCC donates thousands to local nonprofits at store grand opening

FARMINGDALE, N.Y. (Nov. 11, 2016) – TCC, a Verizon retailer that operates more than 800 locations in 38 states, announces today that it is donating $1,000, $3,000 and $5,000 to three local nonprofits in Farmingdale: Long Island Children’s Choir, Help for People and Rock Can Roll.

The organizations will find out the dollar amount they will receive during a ribbon cutting and check presentation at TCC, located at 1280 Broadhollow Road, on Friday, Nov. 18 at noon. Farmingdale residents are also invited to enjoy special limited time holiday offers.

In celebration of TCC’s grand opening in Farmingdale, members of the community were asked to vote for one of five selected local nonprofits to receive the monetary donations. First, second and third place winners were selected based on these community votes.

“We were thrilled with the number of local residents who voted to support these causes,” said Scott Moorehead, CEO of TCC. “As we embed ourselves in the community, we look forward to providing unmatchable service to our Farmingdale customers while also supporting local causes whenever we can.”

TCC makes ongoing investments in the communities in which it does business through its Making Communities Better movement. In 2016, TCC’s efforts have included giving supply packs to 5,000 teachers, contributing $100,000 in grants to organizations focused on improving the environment and donating 135,000 backpacks to children across the nation.
