OUR COMPANY OUR GOVERNANCE OUR PEOPLE OUR COMMUNITIES THE ENVIRONMENT THE NUMBERS AND SMALL PRINT Philanthropy Giving Back the T-Mobile Way Our approach to philanthropy brings together our most valuable assets―our technology, scale, and employees―with the aspiration of creating a connected world where everyone can thrive. We focus our philanthropic investments in areas that advance digital empowerment and support employee- driven community engagement. This approach positions us to drive meaningful impact on societal issues that we can credibly and authentically influence while empowering our employees to give back to the causes most important to their hearts and their communities. Our work supporting our communities was recognized on PEOPLE’s 2021 100 Companies That Care list. In 2021, we donated more than $1.89 billion as a company and through the T-Mobile Foundation to communities across the U.S. and Puerto Rico. This represents $32.8 million in charitable donations from the T-Mobile Foundation and the business, and $1.86 billion through in-kind product and service donations including Project 10Million educational initiatives and disaster relief efforts. Empowering Employees to Give Back Nowhere is our magenta heart more visible than in the communities our employees call home. Through the T-Mobile Foundation, we empower our employees to volunteer and donate to the causes they care most about, matching up to $2,000 in donations or volunteer hours per calendar year. Because not everyone is able to volunteer or donate to the causes they hold dear, we seed employees’ giving accounts with funds that enables them to give back, on us, at select times throughout the year. Additionally, all new employees that join T-Mobile automatically receive giving funds as part of their welcome. In 2021, our employees showed up as an unstoppable force for good, personally donating nearly $3.7 million to local communities and volunteering over 52,000 hours of their time―despite continued constraints posed by COVID-19 restrictions. Changemaker Challenge: Finding the Ideas That Will Change the World T-Mobile searches for the changemakers of the future and helps them move forward with their world-changing ideas. The Changemaker Challenge is an annual nationwide contest that mobilizes the next generation to imagine and plan how to create positive change in their communities. In 2021, we brought in 15 teams of visionary teens to our headquarters in Bellevue, WA, for the three-day Changemaker Challenge Lab. The top teams in each category (Environment, Education, Technology, and Family Challenge) pitched their ideas to change the world to T-Mobile executives for the chance to win a $15,000 seed funding grand prize. Our senior leaders were so impressed they couldn’t choose just one winner. Instead, all four projects shared the prize: Technology Operation Serenity (Rochester, MN): An app that gives pediatric patients preparing for surgery peace of mind through kid-friendly simulations. Environment Aqua-Pods (San Jose, CA): A 100% plant-based, biodegradable sponge that combats water waste and leads to more fertile soil. Education Medicine Encompassed (North Brunswick, NJ): A student-run non-profit organization working to solve the problem of underrepresentation in medicine. Family Challenge Terracan (Bellevue, WA): A smart trash can and app that calculates your waste footprint to help reduce garbage. We can’t wait to see what new trails these young innovators will blaze in years to come. 2021 CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT 47
