About Your Voices:
KIRO 7 is partnering with T-Mobile on Your Voices - a celebration of all the local races and cultures that make up Western Washington. Look for new celebrations each month, and if there’s a person, organization, or month you’d like to see featured, please email us at yourvoices@kiro7.com.
This Month We Celebrate
Project 10Million
Every child deserves the chance to succeed. As families across Western Washington start to get ready to go back to school, one big item that every child needs is home internet access. A lack of home internet connection creates a barrier to education that could keep children from reaching their full potential. That’s why T Mobile’s Project 10Million serves to connect ten million eligible students participating in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) with free internet access and mobile hot spots. Local schools and parents can learn more and apply here.Â

*Student eligibility based on National School Lunch program; 1 per household. 100GB/year free on our network. Availability limited.

Project 10Million: Working to Connect Every Student
Western Washington Gets Real
Western Washington Gets Real is KIRO7’s commitment to having difficult conversations about race and equality. We will dig deep into important issues; from housing, healthcare and education to policing, immigration, and voting. Beyond just highlighting where or how racism exists, Western Washington Gets Real is a chance to learn from each other, to celebrate our differences, and create greater understanding. We’re committed to covering stories that matter to all members of our community, and to amplifying often marginalized voices. Everyone deserves to be heard. Visit the Western Washington Gets Real Page to see more stories about these important issues, as well as Your Voices stories celebrating the different races and cultures that make up our community. On that page, you will also find additional resources and information.
