Customers
”Participation in HITN’s Hotspot program has been life changing for many of the families in our school district. For many, Internet access is just an extra expense they can’t justify when they are struggling to provide the basics like food and shelter. To gain access to the Internet opens doors of opportunity for both the children and parents alike. I can’t even tell you the number of times we have been met with tears of joy and ecstatic hugs from parents as we explain HITN’s generosity with these hotspots, followed by a genuine and humble, ‘Thank You so much!’ or ‘You don’t know what this means to our family! It’s it truly a blessing for our families.
