Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) Bay Area provides critically ill and underserved children with communities of support, access to medical care, and the healing power of family and home during medical crises, such as hospitalizations. Established in 1979, RMHC Bay Area provides no-cost housing, free meals and support services for thousands of families each year along with providing free dental services to the community's most vulnerable children through their Ronald McDonald Care Mobile programs in the East and South Bay Area. In 2023, RMHC Bay Area provided over 38,400 nights of housing and served over 104,000 meals to families nearby and inside the hospital.

“We are extremely honored to receive the Difference Maker Award. This contribution will make an immense impact on the families we serve, providing essential resources and support during challenging times,” said Laura Keegan Boudreau, Chief Executive Officer for RMHC Bay Area. “We are profoundly grateful for T-Mobile's commitment to making a difference in our communities, and we pledge to continue our mission of providing comfort and care to those who need it most.”

T-Mobile's Ongoing Commitment to California

These donations underscore T-Mobile’s ongoing commitment to making a difference in communities throughout Hawaii and Washington. Other investments include the Un-carrier's Hometown Grants program, which provides funding to 100 small towns each year to use toward city beautification projects, public improvements and more. Since launching the five-year program in 2021, 11 towns have received nearly $500,000 across California.

In addition, Project 10Million is T-Mobile’s $10.7B initiative aimed at helping close the digital divide in education by offering free internet connectivity and mobile hotspots to up to ten million eligible student households across the United States. Through T-Mobile’s education programs, the company has connected over 33,000 students in Concord, Oakland, Palo Alto, San Francisco and Santa Rosa, and is also offering school districts free and heavily subsidized data plans and access to affordable laptops and tablets. By the end of 2023, T-Mobile provided $6.4 billion in services and connected nearly six million students across the U.S. through Project 10Million and other education initiatives.
