Earlier today, the Un-carrier announced its new batch of recipients for its Hometown Grants. T-Mobile partnered with Main Street America and Smart Growth America to choose the grant recipients.

With today’s announcement, T-Mobile has already been able to help 250 communities in 43 states. They have also released over $11 million in funding since the campaign rolled out in April 2021. T-Mobile has set aside $25 million for this campaign, which will be available until 2026. 

T-Mobile’s Consumer Group President, Jon Freier, said:

“With 250 recipients, we’ve officially hit the halfway mark with T-Mobile’s Hometown Grants, and the impact is astounding. This milestone isn’t just about communities revitalizing their towns … it’s acknowledging the ripple effect — job creation and tens of thousands of volunteer hours sparking a profound wave of positive change throughout Small Town America — and I can’t wait to see what the next half brings.”
