Community Involvement

Connected to Community

At EdgeConneX, we view ourselves as more than a data center provider – we’re a neighbor, a partner, and a force for good in the communities we call home. We roll up our sleeves alongside local organizations to power digital progress while uplifting lives. From volunteering in neighborhood initiatives to investing in sustainable infrastructure, our commitment reaches far beyond our data halls and into the heart of every city we serve.

Charity

We proudly support local communities by funding projects like food drives, holiday toy giveaways, and back-to-school backpack programs. Together, we strive to make a lasting impact on families and children in need, thereby fostering stronger and more resilient communities.

Progress with Purpose

Data centers play a vital role in our modern lives, powering the apps we use, the emails we send, and even life-saving advancements like AI-driven healthcare solutions. But for us, it’s not just about what happens inside our facilities; it’s about the positive impacts we create outside them. Our Customers, People, Planet mission, guides us in ensuring that every decision we make contributes to sustainability, growth, and opportunity for the people who live, work, and play around our data centers.

Making a Tangible Impact

We’re proud to contribute to the communities where we operate through a variety of initiatives. Whether it’s volunteering at local events, planting trees, mentoring youth, or supporting community programs, we focus on actions that truly make a difference. Beyond our own efforts, we partner with our customers to enhance their community goals, aligning our collective impact to strengthen the places we operate.

Building Trust, Creating Opportunity

When we say “progress and purpose go hand in hand,” we mean it. Together with our partners and customers, we’re working to ensure that EdgeConneX data centers benefit not only the digital landscape but also the communities around them. Whether through hands-on engagement or long-term programs, we strive to leave a meaningful and lasting impact everywhere we operate.
