It's our week in review recapping the past week in Verizon news. First, we discuss our newly released Humanability commercial which features Verizon Innovative Learning, and we look at a tweet shared by LeBron James talking about our program. Second, we launched new deals on smartphones and devices. Next, we take a look at our latest new Best For A Good Reason video. And, we're commemorating the 50th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s death. The network team installed more antennas in Memphis, TN so attendees would have a great experience on our network.

The stories. 

Help Verizon choose the next middle school to invest in.

We're investing over $200 million more into our Verizon Innovative Learning program. This brings our total commitment to over $400 million in tech education resources across the country. Our goal is to reach 5 million kids by 2023. You can nominate the next school.

We call it: Best for a Good Reason.
