Granite Supports Our Veterans Through Falmouth's Commodores in the Community Program

Granite Telecommunications, LLC, a provider of communications solutions to businesses, contributed $5,608.08 to support the Commodores in the Community, a community outreach program of the Cape Cod Baseball League Falmouth Commodores. 

This week’s donation will aid the Commodores in the Community’s efforts with several non-profit organizations, including the Home Base Program, which provides care for Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, a cause important to Granite and CEO Rob Hale.  Hale has been a long-time supporter of veterans, most notably with his support of The Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund, a non-profit started with financial assistance from Hale to fund the college education of children of any Massachusetts soldiers killed in action.  The Home Base Program, which benefits from the support of the Commodores in the Community, aids combat veterans suffering from deployment-related stress or traumatic brain injury.
