"We dove into the rebuilding effort in a concrete way," said Verizon Chairman and CEO Lowell McAdam. "While Verizon doesn't operate a wireless network in Puerto Rico nor in the U.S. Virgin Islands, we are deeply connected to the communities there, through our customers and our employees. In fact, Verizon employees with family and friends in Puerto Rico provided input about the organizations that are positioned to help with the necessary long-term rebuilding that needs to take place."
