Help Support BEAD Grant Funding for Your Community
The BEAD Program (Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment), established under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, is aimed at closing the digital divide across America. Kansas is set to receive $450 million in federal grants for broadband expansion, and Twin Valley is actively preparing applications for BEAD funding. With our matching private investment, we’re prepared to expand our cutting-edge broadband to more rural Kansans, fostering equitable internet access and driving community growth.
How You Can Help
As a local, family-owned broadband and communications provider serving rural Kansas for over 80 years, Twin Valley has the expertise and community commitment to maximize this funding opportunity. Through the Twin Valley Pledge, we’re working to bring affordable and reliable high-speed internet access to rural Kansans, closing the digital equity gap in our state. Your support is crucial in making this vision a reality. Help us by attending a community event or filling out our grant support form online.
Advocate for Your Community Here-
We Pledge to Help the Communities We Serve
Please keep in mind that while we’re fully committed to expanding high-speed internet across our Kansas communities, future projects and services may depend on the availability of BEAD funding and demonstrated community need. Many factors influence these decisions, so expressing interest and applying does not guarantee immediate expansion. However, we remain dedicated to advocating for all of the communities we serve and will continue working tirelessly to improve connectivity wherever possible.
Attend an Upcoming Informational Session
The Twin Valley team will be available in various prospective BEAD funding areas to answer questions, gain insights, and see how your current broadband connectivity can be improved. We want to hear from you so we can advocate for your connectivity.
