Community Projects
Investing Time and Experience Close to Home
Belis Communications develops a limited number of projects intended to strengthen the communities where we live and work, some of our own and some in partnership with nonprofit organizations, community groups, and local businesses.
Good strategy should create value beyond a client list.
Community Projects gives us a place to develop practical local ideas and contribute our communication and business experience where it can do regional good.
We consider projects based on community value, responsible leadership, available funding or sponsorship, timing, and our capacity to contribute responsibly.
Types of Projects
Firm-Led Initiatives
Ideas developed and organized by Belis Communications in response to a specific local opportunity.
Nonprofit Partnerships
Selected collaborations where communication, positioning, launch support, or community visibility can help an established nonprofit move important work forward.
Regional Collaborations
Projects involving businesses, community organizations, sponsors, or public partners working toward a shared local outcome.
Current Community Project
Community Boards
Six local businesses. One community location. Twelve months of visibility.
Community Boards places professionally designed boards inside participating local businesses and nonprofit locations. Each board gives six noncompeting businesses a year of repeated visibility in a place community members already visit.
Host locations receive a customized board at no cost. Nonprofit hosts also receive direct financial support from the project.

What Comes Next
Future Projects
Community Projects will grow over time through nonprofit partnerships, firm-led initiatives, and collaborations with organizations that share a practical commitment to the region.
