Community Involvement

Contel continues to be a strong supporter of local community events. Always looking for ways to make positive, long-term impacts on their communities.

Contel donated employee labor and funds to help construct a concession stand for the Elgin Classic Little League. Contel employees solicited for subcontract and volunteer labor and the acquisition of purchased and donated materials. Contel management acted as supervision of both contracted and volunteer labor on the construction of the entire project. The 40’ x 60’ building, consisting of concession area, covered picnic area, and bathroom facilities, was completed for opening day of the 2000 Season. This concession stand is enjoyed by over 700 players, their families, and dedicated fans.

Contel, Inc. employees’ involvement with today’s youth has been apparent with their direct participation within their local communities. Contel and it’s employees have been involved with local Big Brother-Big Sister programs, coaching and mentoring boys and girls in programs such as Addison Rec Club, an organization dedicated to athletic programs for more than 1,000 children in such sports as Pop Warner Football and Cheerleading, Baseball, and Basketball. Contel encourages all of its employees to donate their time and talents with hands on direct involvement within local communities. It is this type of attitude that exemplifies and carries over to our customers’ workplace, displaying the values and integrity of The Contel Family.
