T-Mobile Hometown Grants

What kinds of projects will T-Mobile fund?

We’ll help fund projects that foster local connections, like technology upgrades, outdoor spaces, the arts, and community centers.

Applicant’s proposal must include plans, budget, timeline, anticipated impact, and up to five letters of support.

Who can request a grant?

Elected officials, town managers/employees, tribal leaders, or nonprofit community leaders from small towns with population less than 50,000 can apply.

T-Mobile awards 25 grants up to $50,000 for shovel-ready projects each quarter to small towns just like Oswego! Just let us know what project you’d like funding for!
