On March 28, 2018, the
Un-carrier launched the T-Mobile Changemaker Challenge.
Through the contest, T-Mobile and partner Ashoka
are kickstarting 25 revolutionary ideas from the nation's most
visionary youth who want to improve their own neighborhoods and
communities.

|
|
|
|
|
|
The 25 teams with winning ideas will be announced in July 2018 and
will get an all-expenses paid trip to T-Mobile's Headquarters in
Seattle later this summer for a two-day intensive Changemaker Lab
focused on mentorship and skills development. In addition, winning
teams will get new devices and a share of $57,000 in seed funding
from the T-Mobile Foundation - plus an opportunity to meet T-Mobile
CEO, John Legere! Teams will finish the Lab with robust plans to
take their ideas and make them reality - along with the resources
they need to keep their projects going long-term.

Youth are stepping up, taking action and driving change on a wide
range of today's most urgent social and environmental issues --
safety, education, poverty, inequality, food and water security and
more. T-Mobile wants to hear what inspires young people to improve
their communities and how they see that change coming about. Ideas
can be big or small, as long as they drive positive change, are
sustainable, and can make a lasting impact.

Changemaker Challenge is focused squarely on empowering the next
