Building Stronger Communities, Together

At altafiber, we believe that real impact happens when we invest in the people and places that make our communities thrive. That's why we're proud to share that the Bell Charitable Foundation has awarded another round of transformative grants to local nonprofits working to uplift lives and protect our environment.

This cycle, we focused on Economic & Social Mobility and Sustainability, supporting organizations that empower individuals, strengthen families, and create a healthier future for all. With 14 grants totaling over $250,000, we're honored to stand alongside these changemakers in Greater Cincinnati and Hawai'i as they make a lasting difference in the lives of our neighbors. Thank you for being part of a community that believes in giving back. Together, we're building a brighter future—one connection at a time.

See some of the highlights below:

Economic and Social Mobility

• Beech Acres Parenting Center: Beech Acres works diligently to advance youth mental and social-emotional well-being through our Effective School Solutions (ESS) programs. ESS features a multi-tiered framework of trauma-informed counseling, social-emotional curriculum, and wrap-around family support in partner schools to ensure all children can thrive inside and outside the classroom.
• Back2Back: Back2Back's Communities of Belonging program equips roughly 400 Greater Cincinnati children in poverty for economic mobility through trauma-informed after-school activities and summer camps. These "Communities of Belonging" offer diverse activities including socioemotional learning groups and tutoring. In recent years, engagement in Communities has led to significant reductions in behavioral disruptions and improvements in academic performance for students in the program.
• CityLink Center: CityLink Center was founded to address a fractured social service structure which challenged our neighbors to navigate an incredibly complex system of support with little margin of time or money. CityLink offers multiple programs and wrap-around services all in one building, providing an opportunity for those who walk through our doors to achieve their desired outcomes in education, employment, and financial education, as well as supporting them as they work to remove barriers in transportation, housing, and childcare.
  

Sustainability

• Mission of Mary: Mission of Mary Cooperative (MMC) is a catalyst and partner for sustainable urban development committed to building a sustainable and just food system in Dayton by making fresh, healthy food accessible, empowering residents to grow their own, and educating the community on sustainable practices. In 2024, MMC donated 30,000 pounds of additional produce to those most in need, distributed through partners like Miami Valley Meals and local food pantries.
• Cincinnati Recycling and Reuse Hub: Cincinnati Recycling & Reuse Hub (the Hub) is working to improve and expand the school-based recycling collection programs, particularly in low-income communities where resources are less likely to be focused on environmental education and sustainability initiatives. The Hub operates multiple programs to divert items from the landfill, pursuing our mission "to revolutionize how people think about 'things' and to provide a place where almost anything can be recycled or reused."
