"Since Hurricanes Helene and Milton made landfall, T-Mobile’s
Emergency Response teams have been on the ground helping restore
connectivity and assist impacted communities,” said Mike Katz,
President of Marketing, Strategy and Products, T-Mobile. “Now, as
those communities are working through the challenging process of
rebuilding, we remain by their side, extending our support and
enabling baseball fans to join us through Rally for Relief. We’re
using one of baseball’s biggest stages to bring attention to these
impacted areas and make a difference for the communities that need
it most.”
For more than a decade, T-Mobile and the Red Cross have
partnered to help support communities in need. Donations raised as
part of Rally for Relief will enable the Red Cross to help those
affected by hurricanes and tropical storms in 2024. The Red Cross
responds to an average of 65,000 disasters annually, providing
anyone in need with safe shelter, meals, relief supplies, emotional
support and more.
Today’s commitment follows T-Mobile's previous efforts during
MLB’s Postseason and its longstanding support of hurricane recovery
and restoration efforts. Since first introducing Home Runs for
Hurricane Recovery in 2017, T-Mobile has donated over $7.5 million
to organizations supporting hurricane and natural disaster relief
and recovery efforts. T-Mobile's efforts have supported the
rebuilding of over 30 homes in Florida following Hurricane Irma in
2017 and building more than 500 hurricane-resilient roofs in Puerto
Rico after Hurricane Maria. The Un-carrier also partnered with the
Red Cross to provide connectivity support to over 200 evacuation
centers in Florida ahead of Hurricane Ian in 2022.
As a part of the Rally for Relief donation commitment and
campaign, T-Mobile also teamed up with nine-time Grammy
Award-winning musician Sheryl Crow to record a new track titled
“Light A Candle,” penned by Kobalt Music/Little Louder publishing
writer Luke Dick and co-writer and songwriter Ronan O’Mahony. The
track will be featured in a new TV spot debuting during Game 1 of
the World Series. Crow’s proceeds from the song will be donated
directly to the American Red Cross.
“In the wake of these historic storms, countless individuals
have faced life-altering devastation to their homes, their towns
and to their everyday lives,” said Crow. “I'm thankful for the
opportunity to lend my voice to the relief efforts in partnership
with T-Mobile and give these folks who are truly in need a helping
hand. I hope that anyone who hears this song will be inspired to
participate and contribute to the cause by donating.”
T-Mobile is launching its Rally for Relief campaign as a proud
partner of Major League Baseball, adding to the nearly $4 million
contributed by MLB and its clubs to date.
T-Mobile's Support of Recovery Efforts Around Helene and
Milton
In an unprecedented scenario where two massive storms hit the
Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic U.S. and caused significant
back-to-back destruction, T-Mobile teams were ready to mobilize
quickly. Over 600 emergency crew members, field engineers and
technicians were on site in impacted areas, working to quickly
assess and restore impacted connectivity, distribute supplies to
affected communities and support employees, first responders and
others with critical resources.
The Un-carrier’s Network Team deployed and maintained over 800
generators — alongside other temporary connectivity solutions — to
rapidly recover impacted sites and restore coverage. T-Mobile's
Emergency Response Team operated Wi-Fi trailers and trucks, a
Mobile Command Center, charging stations and distributed supplies
like charging cords and more. Key team members collaborated with
federal, state and local officials, working with emergency
management officials and in-state operations centers to ensure
prioritization of key recovery areas. And on-the-ground teams
partnered with the Red Cross to help people at critical locations
like shelters and points of distribution.
