T-Mobile employees in the Mountain West area chose the
organizations as recipients of the Difference Maker Award — a
quarterly recognition program the Un-carrier started in 2023 to
recognize top-ranked employees in business performance areas across
the company. As part of the initiative, employees presented checks
to the charities and participated in a day of service.
Employees have provided funding to organizations across
Colorado, California, Hawaii, Washington, Virginia, Puerto Rico and
now, the latest recipients in the Mountain West. To date, the
Difference Maker Award has given $300,000 to a total of 30
charities across the U.S.
“The Difference Maker Award, which since launching last year has
strengthened communities all around America, is all about making
investments in our customers and creating good in their world,”
said Jon Freier, President, T-Mobile Consumer Group. “It’s a
privilege to recognize and cheer on our Mountain West teammates for
their stellar contributions while empowering them to make T-Mobile,
their communities and these five organizations better.”
Here’s a closer look at how each organization is making a
difference.
- Canines with a Cause: Pairs rescued dogs with military
veterans living with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD),
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and/or Military Sexual Trauma (MST) to
become psychiatric service or assistance dogs, providing training
classes completely free of charge across Salt Lake City, Utah,
northern Nevada and northern Idaho.
- Faces of Hope: Provides a safety net of crisis services
to men, women, and children experiencing domestic violence, sexual
assault, child abuse, elder abuse, stalking or human trafficking

animal welfare organization and veterinary charity in the state,
IHS is on a mission to advocate for the welfare and responsible
care of animals, protect them from neglect and cruelty, and promote
humane education, awareness, and compassion.
- Kids Unlimited of Oregon: This grassroots nonprofit
supports children and families with integrated services that bridge
school, afterschool and summer on a campus that provides education,
afterschool programs, social-emotional supports, parent and family
resources, early learning programs and community recreation,
empowering children to learn, eat freshly prepared meals, play and
dance, explore, dream and, ultimately, imagine their Unlimited

- Ronald McDonald House Charities of Idaho: On a mission
to keep families close to their child during a time of medical
need. They have enough worries attending to complicated medical
needs of their child, maintaining their jobs, caring for other
children or family members, and keeping up with medical expenses —
RMHC of Idaho cares for families offering them a safe and secure
place for healing filled with hope and comfort, so they can focus
on their ill or injured child. Last year, RMHC of Idaho served over
1,800 families and utilized over 2,300 volunteers to help around
