50 Ways We Show We Care
On May 10, 1976, Phil Bell officially started P.B. Bell. After working for public companies, he was ready to start something new and create a locally owned company dedicated to making lives and places better by developing and managing multifamily housing communities.
To commemorate 50 years, P.B. Bell is taking its community giving to the next level through a company-wide initiative: “50 Ways We Show We Care.” This community giving will include volunteer events at UMOM, celebrating residents and employees at all P.B. Bell communities, charity giving at the annual P.B. Bell year-end party, and executive team involvement in charitable organizations such as Entryway, Hope Kids, and the Arizona Multihousing Charitable Foundation.
