Local Families May Qualify for Internet Discount

The Affordable Connectivity Program is a federal government benefit program operated by the FCC that provides qualifying households with a monthly credit to help pay for Internet service.

If eligible, households may receive a credit of up to $30 per month toward their broadband services.

Cumberland Connect has a link on its website (click here) that Cumberland Electric Membership Corporation members can visit and see if they qualify. If they qualify, they can call CEMC and they will apply the credit to their account.
