Bio
For more than 34 years, the Cincinnati educator Letteria Dalton, encouraged the youth of Cincinnati to strive for excellence. Established in 1986, the Letteria Dalton Foundation supports opportunities for children and communities in the Greater Cincinnati area. Letteria Dalton believed in encouraging young people to strive towards their highest potential. The Cincinnati educator was devoted to educational and cultural programs throughout the city.
As a child, the importance of education was highly stressed to Letteria. She knew the importance of striving for excellence and that community support was required. Working in Cincinnati’s segregated school system, ignited her passion for educating children, lending support to those in need, she along with her husband became champions for the less fortunate.
Cincinnati has become a place of opportunity, however, many children in Cincinnati will not reach their fullest potential. Through dedication and commitment, the foundation continues to expand opportunities for education, community outreach and health. Today we continue her legacy of education and culture.
