State of Florida, T-Mobile launch partnership to provide low-income families with free internet
October 27, 2020 -
First Lady Casey DeSantis has announced a statewide partnership with T-Mobile to provide over 600,000 Florida families 100GB of internet per year over the next five years. This partnership coincides with T-Mobile’s Project 10Million, a national campaign to increase internet connectivity to millions of student households at no cost to them by offering free wireless hotspots and free high-speed data with the goal of making it available to Florida K-12 students who participate in the national school lunch program for low-income families. School administrators can apply for the program by providing ZIP codes for students that participate in the school lunch program. The schools then distribute the hotspots and devices, with T-Mobile providing assistance for setup and technical support.
