T-Mobile recently announced it will donate $1.4 million raised from the Annual Golf Outing on September 28, to be shared equally by the Tower Family Foundation (TFF) and Warriors4Wireless (W4W). The annual tournament results have increased every year with proceeds going in equal amounts to TFF and W4W. In 2015, the outing raised $40,000 with $20,000 to each. 

“The T-Mobile Tournament achieves at least two results each year,” said tourney host and T-Mobile Chief Procurement Officer Mike Simpson. “Number one, military veterans looking for career opportunities in wireless will have more opportunity, and two: tower crew members or their families who experience injuries or worse while building network infrastructure will be supported financially. Our tourney sponsors deserve all the credit.”

“The wireless industry makes all our work possible,” stated Tower Family Foundation President Jim Tracy. “Through this donation, T-Mobile and the 2021 sponsoring companies are telling us to up our game. Their generosity is a hallmark of the wireless infrastructure industry. As a benefactor, the Tower Family Foundation is committed to being great stewards of this contribution as more than 97 cents of every dollar donated goes directly to industry workers and their families during times of need,” Tracy added.

The 2021 Tournament featured 47 corporate sponsors – including 5G network suppliers like Ericsson, Nokia, Mobilitie, Vertical Bridge and Tillman Infrastructure.
