"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

Some funding for broadband outreach pilot programs will come from savings within a plan, approved 3-0 today by the commission, to reform the Lifeline program. As part of the Universal Service Fund, Lifeline provides about 13.5 million Americans with discounted monthly phone service and phone installations.
