Optimum Celebrates the Holiday Season by Spreading Joy and Giving Back to its Local Communities

This holiday season, Optimum, the provider of advanced internet, mobile, TV, and phone services, announces a series of initiatives designed to bring joy and support to communities across the company’s service areas. As a company committed to connecting its customers to what matters most and making a positive impact in the communities it serves, Optimum is proud to continue to find new ways to deepen its local presence while celebrating the holiday season.   

Santa Street Teams

Among the highlights is Optimum’s Santa Street Teams, with Santa and his elves set to travel through various shopping centers in Optimum’s footprint, including throughout Long Island, New Jersey, Connecticut, and the Bronx. Area residents can spot Santa’s team at their local shopping center and at select Optimum retail stores, where they can also meet News 12 talent as well as enjoy holiday treats and a holiday toy raffle. The weeklong event promises to bring smiles to the faces of children and adults alike, as Santa and his elves spread holiday cheer across Optimum’s local communities. 

Follow along on Optimum’s and News 12’s social channels to track Santa and his elves. 

Holiday-Themed Events

Optimum is hosting several retail events aimed at creating memorable holiday experiences for customers and local communities. From Bethpage, New York to Hendersonville, North Carolina, these events will feature holiday-themed activities including pictures with Santa, a toy drive, holiday letters to veterans, and more as well as additional opportunities for shoppers to engage with Optimum’s best-in-class products and services.

Giving Tuesday

In honor of Giving Tuesday, Optimum deepened its commitment to community support through its strategic partnerships with DonorsChoose, Boys & Girls Clubs of America, and more. 

• Once again, Optimum teamed up with national education nonprofit DonorsChoose to support local classrooms in need. Since Optimum’s partnership with DonorsChoose first began in 2020, the company has donated $3.8 million to over 12,000 classroom projects at nearly 6,000 schools across the country, providing tools, technology, and experiences that foster lasting learning and success.
• Optimum continued to support national organization Boys & Girls Clubs of America through a special campaign for its business customers. On behalf of select business customers, Optimum Business donated funds to local Boys & Girls Clubs to support innovation and growth of students and inspire the next generation of leaders throughout the local communities that the company serves.
• Following the deployment of Optimum’s 100% Fiber Internet Network to Montclair, New Jersey earlier this year, the company has partnered with the YMCA in a Matching Gift Challenge, where Optimum matched all gifts – up to $5,000 – to the YMCA of Montclair’s Financial Assistance and Cause-Driven Programs Fund to help build a strong Y for all members of the community.
