Chat Mobility continues to invest in local schools

As another school year begins, Chat Mobility looks to continue its long history of philanthropy to the communities it serves.

This year Chat Mobility’s “school rebate program” will donate 2.5 percent of any participating customer’s service access fee directly to local schools in the form of a quarterly check. Participation in the program does not cost customers anything. Customers simply select the school they want Chat Mobility to donate to on their behalf. To date, the wireless service provider has donated nearly $200,000 to local participating schools.

Chat Mobility takes a special interest in the well-being of its local communities, specifically in regards to education.

“These students are the future, for local communities and our nation,” said Brian Surgeon, Chat Mobility general manager. “The staff at Chat Mobility wants to ensure their success, and the school rebate program is one way we’re helping these kids do that.”

“Shenandoah High School very much appreciates Chat Mobility’s support of our students,” said Sandy Hilding, principal at Shenandoah High School. “We have used the money to fund our success assemblies and items that teachers and students need in the classroom. We want to say thank you to Chat Mobility and their customers for their awesome support.”

In addition to the school rebate program, Chat Mobility is giving away a 2015 Chevy Malibu on Black Friday this year to help promote its “no texting and driving” campaign throughout the schools and communities. There is no purchase required to enter, but you must be 16 years or older to win. Teachers, students 16 years or older and their parents can all participate in the contest. Ten $100 gift cards will also be given away as prizes.

Headquartered in Emerson, Chat Mobility has been a provider of wireless services to rural customers in southwest and south central Iowa for over 19 years. Chat Mobility provides its customers with innovative technology including data and mobile services, the latest wireless equipment and nationwide coverage.
