Mission Telecom Unveils Project: Volume Up to Help Libraries With Hotspot-Lending Programs
Mission Telecom introduced Project: Volume Up, “a nationwide initiative designed to help public libraries launch or expand hotspot lending programs in their communities. To introduce the project, Mission Telecom brings together hardware, nationwide 4G and 5G coverage, and nonprofit pricing into a single, ready-to-launch solution—so libraries can quickly get hotspot programs up and running.”The company continues, “The new program offers a critical lifeline to libraries across the country that were forced to end or cut back on hotspot lending programs after the FCC eliminated funding for the E-rate program in October.” The project offers two entry points for libraries: - Switch & Save allows libraries to retain their existing devices while switching their SIM card to Mission Telecom—delivering immediate savings without the need for new hardware.
- Launch for Access gives libraries everything they need to start a hotspot lending program: 2 Franklin T10 4G hotspots, 2 donated Franklin T10 4G hotspots to keep, 4 lines of unlimited service for 12 months, and dedicated account support.
