Tulsa-based entrepreneur Koddi Dunn has been featured by Heartland Forward and Builders + Backers as part of a national celebration of the 1,000th participant milestone in their Idea Accelerator program. Koddi is the visionary behind Love Mobile – The Cellphone Company That Gives Back®, a wireless service provider merging reliable cellular service with intentional community reinvestment.
Launched in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Love Mobile aims to transform the traditional wireless model. By offering affordable cellular service while directly supporting community-focused initiatives, Love Mobile sets itself apart. Under Koddi’s leadership, the company is proving that mobile carriers can do more than connect calls—they can connect people to opportunity.
“Love Mobile’s mission is to invest in heartland communities,” Heartland Forward wrote in their spotlight post, aligning Koddi’s work with their broader mission of driving economic renewal across America’s heartland.
Heartland Forward is a think-and-do tank based in Bentonville, Arkansas, focused on boosting economic performance in the center of the country. Through data, policy, and programs, Heartland Forward champions innovation, entrepreneurship, and digital inclusion in places often overlooked in national conversations.
Its Builders + Backers program, powered by Heartland Forward, helps everyday people turn bold ideas into businesses by providing early-stage funding and structured accelerator support. The program recently marked a major milestone—1,000 participants and $10 million in early-stage funding deployed—a testament to its growing impact.
Koddi Dunn is the 11th of 14 entrepreneurs being highlighted this month by Builders + Backers. Her selection acknowledges both the strength of her idea and the potential for real community transformation.
With Love Mobile, Koddi Dunn exemplifies a new type of founder—one who sees technology not just as a product, but as a vehicle for social change. Love Mobile reinvests a portion of its revenue back into education, local initiatives, and digital access efforts in underserved areas. The company’s model serves as a blueprint for others seeking to balance profit with purpose.
As Heartland Forward continues spotlighting entrepreneurs like Koddi, the message is clear: the heartland is rising, and it’s being built by people committed to change from the inside out.
