At Bell, we believe being an outstanding corporate citizen is about using our financial resources and the expertise of our employees to invest in the communities we serve. Bell employees have been giving back to communities across Canada since the company was created almost 130 years ago. In 2008, BCE directly contributed more than $20.5 million to charitable initiatives, including matching employee donations to the United Way/Centraide and grants to a range of charities where our employees volunteer.
Bell's Community Investment strategy is squarely focused on the health of children and youth...on our conviction that this country's future is being determined today in our ability to enable children to be their best, no matter what the challenges.
