Fireside Online Chat: Mission Telecom’s E-Rate Support
FEATURING
- Mark Colwell, Director of Broadband Operations, Mission Telecom
- Beverly Sutherland, President & CEO, EdTechnologyFunds
- (Moderator) Liz Gabbitas, Managing Director, Libraries for Digital Equity
When E-Rate funding fell short, many schools and libraries were left without affordable Wi-Fi options. Mission Telecom has stepped in to fill this E-Rate gap, ensuring students and patrons stay connected.
Join us for a 45-minute conversation on how Mission Telecom is extending support for institutions impacted by E-Rate cuts and simplifying the process of keeping Wi-Fi programs running. We’ll cover how to get started, what the transition process looks like, and how our reliable service performs in both rural and urban environments. You’ll also hear how our nonprofit model keeps schools and libraries’ connectivity affordable and sustainable long after the first year. FY2026 E-Rate program updates will also be discussed.
