PADUCAH, Ky, December 5, 2024 — RightFiber recently celebrated its $13 million expansion into Paducah, bringing high-quality, fiber optic internet and future-proof connectivity to businesses and residents, with a donation of $30,000 to The United Way of Western Kentucky.

“RightFiber believes in doing right by the communities we serve by supporting organizations and causes that improve lives,” said Ritter Communications CEO, Heath Simpson. “The United Way of Western Kentucky is creating solutions that ensure everyone has the resources they need to thrive, and we’re proud to support that mission with this donation and by bringing fiber connectivity through our broadband services.”

The United Way of Western Kentucky strengthens the community by addressing critical needs in education, income and health. Funds raised by the organization are strategically directed toward initiatives that align with these goals, which have been carefully designed to meet the unique needs of Paducah and McCracken County.

"We are thrilled to welcome RightFiber to our community and deeply appreciate their remarkable $30,000 investment. This generous gift not only highlights their commitment to making a positive impact but also sets a powerful example of corporate responsibility for others to follow,” said United Way of Western Kentucky CEO, Betsy Burkeen. “By prioritizing food security, housing and quality healthcare, RightFiber is demonstrating that they are not just a new business in Paducah—they are a dedicated partner in our community’s well-being.
