Helping ensure internet access is not a barrier to a child’s education

In 2020, T-Mobile launched Project 10Million as their 5 year commitment to close the homework gap. As they continue their effort to close the digital divide, they have partnered with Big Brothers Big Sisters to provide eligible students (up to grade 12) with free internet through free mobile hotspots with 100GB of internet per year for 5 years.

Working to Connect Every Student

T-Mobile believes that access to the internet is access to opportunity, that's why they are using their network as a force for good to close the digital divide for 10 million eligible households in need.

It's enough data for any one of the following:

• 140 hours Streaming school videos
• 320 hours Of online virtual learning
• 5,000 hours Of internet research
• 200 hours Of online college test prep
