Cricket Communications, which owns Leap Wireless, has applied for a $8.6 million broadband stimulus grant in partnership with One Economy Corporation, to provide 23,000 low-income families primarily in Baltimore, Houston, Memphis, San Diego and Washington, D.C. with sustainable, innovative broadband access and digital literacy training.
Project Change Access would furnish subsidized, low-cost wireless broadband using Cricket’s 3G wireless network.
One Economy would provide targeted and localized content for education, employment, and health care through its multiple online portals, in addition to training.
