      T-Mobile and the United Negro College Fund (UNCF) are launching the T-Mobile Huddle Up Scholarship Program to reduce financial barriers and help increase access to higher education for talented, low-income high school seniors from single-parent or non-traditional households in Washington state.

      Through the T-Mobile Huddle Up Scholarship Program, T-Mobile will provide up to 10 qualifying students with scholarships to attend accredited four-year colleges or universities. Scholarships of $5,000 will be awarded annually for up to four years.

      This new scholarship program is part of T-Mobile's company-wide community outreach program, T-Mobile Huddle Up, which connects kids, primarily from single-parent, high-need urban communities to positive people, places and programs.
