What is FRS? Advancing Rural Telecom Youth Outreach Supporting FRS
 

The Foundation for Rural Service

Established in 1994 by the National Telecommunications Cooperative Association (NTCA), the Foundation for Rural Service (FRS) is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization that promotes, educates and advocates rural telecom issues in order to sustain and enhance the quality of life within communities throughout rural America. FRS educates the public on the benefits of a ubiquitous, nationwide telecommunications network, and promotes rural connectivity as an essential link in this network. FRS firmly believes that rural communities - regardless of their size or location - deserve the same connection to the world as do residents of larger, urban environments.

To carry out its educational and advocacy mission, FRS develops and disseminates information about rural telecom issues and encourages support of community based telecom providers and the communities they serve.

As the rural telecommunications industry is ever-changing, the Foundation for Rural Service attempts to keep up with the times in regards to its programs and initiatives. Please see below for additional information on some of our most recent endeavors.
