Community
We care about our community.
From our beginning, we have felt support from our North Carolina community. We are forever grateful for that support, and we try to give back and make a difference wherever we can. Through employee participation, corporate sponsorships and donations, we support many local organizations. Here are some of the organizations with which we are currently involved.

In collaboration with Earth Day, WingSwept hosted the first ever Technology Spring Clean community service event on April 25, 2009 and collected over 5,000 pounds of equipment to be recycled. Without this opportunity, these items may have polluted our landfills and caused harm to the earth. WingSwept held the second annual spring clean on April 17, 2010 and collected over 22,000 pounds of technology with the support of the community.
