Sparklight® Opens Applications for Fall 2025 Charitable Giving Fund to Support Local Nonprofits

PHOENIX (Sept. 30, 2025) Sparklight®, a leading high-speed internet provider, is once again inviting local nonprofits to apply for its Charitable Giving Fund. Beginning Oct. 1, 501(c)(3) organizations across the 24 states served by Sparklight can submit applications for fall 2025 grants through Oct. 31.
 
Each year, Sparklight awards $250,000 in grants to nonprofits that are helping communities grow stronger and more connected. Funding is focused on three key areas where the need is great and the impact is lasting:
 

  • Education and Digital Literacy
  • Hunger Relief and Food Insecurity
  • Community Development
 
“Strong communities are built when we lift each other up,” said Julie Laulis, President & CEO. “Every day, local nonprofits in our communities are on the front lines — teaching kids, feeding families and creating brighter futures. It’s an honor to stand beside them and help expand the hope and resilience they bring to our neighborhoods.”
 
Since launching the Charitable Giving Fund in April 2021, Sparklight has awarded more than $1 million in grants. These investments have supported nonprofits providing everything from digital literacy training for students, to meals for families facing hunger, to programs that bring new resources and opportunities into local neighborhoods.
