FORT SMITH, Ark. (October 30, 2024) RightFiber by Ritter Communications celebrates the company’s recently announced $6.3 million expansion project bringing high-quality, fiber optic internet and future-proof connectivity to residents, with a donation of $50,000 to the Fort Smith Boys and Girls Clubs, Jeffrey-Glidewell Unit.
“RightFiber remains committed to supporting the communities we serve; donations like this are just one of the ways we express that support,” said Ritter Communications CEO Heath Simpson. “The Fort Smith Boys and Girls Clubs encourage young minds to stay connected with and explore the world around them. In many ways, the connectivity we provide through our broadband services empowers people to do exactly that, and we’re proud to contribute to and enhance the Clubs’ inspiring work.”
The Fort Smith Boys & Girls Clubs help youth of all backgrounds develop the qualities needed to become responsible citizens and leaders. The Club serves the community with four campuses across the city and offers programming on topics such as sports, art, gardening, music, STEAM and more. Additionally, the Club offers after-school and summer programming and care, enabling young people from six to 18 years old to develop relationships with mentors from the community.
“The mission of The Fort Smith Boys and Girls Clubs is to create a safe, positive and inclusive environment for all,” said Club CEO Beth Presley. “The generous contribution from RightFiber to the Fort Smith Boys & Girls Clubs will provide opportunities for more children to participate in our STEM program, which includes activities such as Lego Robotics, 3D printers, drones, Esports, and podcasting, which grows the skills and knowledge in our young, aspiring engineers and inventors.”
