Rogers newly expanded program supports the federal government\u2019s plan to provide faster Internet speeds to all Canadians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted how much we all rely on digital connections now. It has reinforced the importance of access to affordable high-speed Internet as, now more than ever, Canadians are working, learning and communicating with friends and family from home,\u201d said The Honourable Fran\u00e7ois-Philippe Champagne, Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry. \u201cIt is a priority for our Government to ensure that all Canadians get connected, and we are counting on our partners in the private sector to help us achieve that goal.

Safe, affordable connectivity is essential for women and children to access services, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. This program will enable countless women to receive the counselling and safety planning they need, stay in touch with loved ones, apply for jobs, and attend on-line schooling, all of which helps them &#8211; and their children &#8211; to live lives free from violence.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Supporting Newfoundlanders through the Connected for Success expansion, also announced today in Ontario and New Brunswick, is just one of the ways Rogers is committed to bridging the digital divide to meet critical connectivity needs for Canadians.\u00a0 Throughout the pandemic, Rogers provided thousands of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=-_vFXlmskZpFvNnDJGj1a16Ezv5dexmdwim3jaSxEn6xVBoCBJeadI_b7epXdE1i5CUtS0fxqzsJXb_SPD2zyRuoENqB_AmA67B8bFiM4xNadfEX_uvyponTjOmuU1DttH0Q6II9rodrz1KaUuo647Ns2O9NNqd2hhceAXKbTaXNLsYGxiqBIA1i8pu_FVC7KJGQXjM2AMlr11jaI-jRbNI7Nf4bgrZZPkoDxfGriBPXgx3211hDAgSbogGTc9hi7SprMmnsdUMLjoz6qcO6fw==\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">devices and plans<\/a> as digital lifelines to women\u2019s shelters across Atlantic Canada like Iris Kirby House in St. John\u2019s, and to youth organizations like Big Brothers Big Sisters Canada to keep youth connected to mentors, in addition to providing annual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=5I8BTd_rxaUtg__Ii8C3Ru7zXt5LvEqeR2pR4Xm5aVLMm1QLhIfZMqWbhLbdrC1J-IS2ed8GLD9Z1t0i6BdtwxgE6TE5ml3dlbJ7UCj-LiucztGYc9MBGUW2e5p2qRJTkshuikef1Ls0uuvOVNIFB5eEIHcGCsFe5lHUyeo-PneAsjX2u3pQugw99F-vo9GkXwIr5a3S9_RcTla6yuD8dSWzEuYZ0n6cVN0dIXdzV-m_42GwvDvAFbQmN9qEh9HHD5UNbH48T5dshQfyvMBt_u3nah52GbK9vfweX_XJqucUrC7fwm0Z_cebMczNC5zY\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Ted Rogers Community Grants<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=5I8BTd_rxaUtg__Ii8C3RrIKLsxm510R_pi6TlDdMuF9acOOazRTSn_KR_Xqs9h4GaKknjmi7OKscqWaN1mA0NqvtY7Pkt_7RsCh8bVHZjlDA-8HuKR0t4iyr4js83izX47zucJzdKAVTTsmFkXyg38Uf-uourkcsH7CSg8sCKwAOE3kQgeU14p1nD18Jd8Ex8PKkINs75aMyFStizkfXbCCJlX1R7CoktPF15TpeNa2BG0GDqJwnOCUpxVz6BHh\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Ted Rogers Scholarships<\/a> to support the next generation.\u00a0 In partnership with the Jays Care Foundation and Food Banks Canada, the company also provided 9 million meals through donations and food hampers for food banks across the country like the St. John\u2019s Community Food Sharing Association as part of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=mjKKtJ02p8dTnaeprhGvrCM7bqG3iT5YJh0VUL0OiHAYYiOYiNkwlKkSZCHkFpJ6ZcQZfeGZfW0iHmU9Iu7rDlEUHWc-2Xma5xrr72OVFqWi41ugKkCXadhTPbskVhp6djAjXh51g3JeHYR0aQ9V2M0dBToLmtA_KFmutwwxBsDE0oP3Hz1re53z-4a2N6E4EX3yZ-liIcw_Wd4Sg__98eIGq60My_mqSrKYA-xfXdD38_4aLA7BdXJ9NaKeEAD3tgSepOf82ADu8N4NpWOcvw==\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Step Up to the Plate<\/a>.
