In the full swing of the school season, AT&T is helping provide the tools for connection to
families in Phoenix.
Last week, we partnered with Compudopt to distribute 200 refurbished laptops to students
served by Boys & Girls Clubs of the Valley at their Arizona Diamondbacks Branch.
This distribution is part of a massive nationwide push. AT&T is committing $5 billion to help 25 million people get and stay connected to high-speed internet by 2030. AT&T will distribute
30,000 laptops nationwide in 2026.
The club was buzzing with activity while families picked up their new devices. You could feel the excitement in the room.
Laptops were given to students and families by AT&T employees. It was inspiring to see our
employees commitment to connecting our community.
This was truly a collaborative effort, and it was clear that it goes beyond technology. It’s about empowering families, supporting education, and building a foundation for a brighter future.
