Hurricane Katrina
Relief
During the large evacuation of New Orleans,
many refuges came to Brenham to wait out the storm and flood
waters. Because of the rapid evacuating, many families
had no way to communicate on the status of loved ones.
Texas Broadband volunteered to supply internet and equipment
to the red cross relief center. This service was very
valuable in keeping families in communication with others and
for delivering news to the refugees. Texas Broadband has
always prided itself in helping the communities that it
serves.
Brenham WiFi Project
Texas
Broadband has contributed to several community projects.
Currently, Texas Broadband is supplying free high speed
internet in the downtown Brenham area. By partnering
with The City of Brenham,
Defacto
Wireless and AirMatrix,
Texas Broadband has created a free Mesh Network for internet
users in the downtown area. This service is intended and
designed to deliver free internet to guest of the downtown
area and has proven to be a very useful tool for citizens and
visitors alike.
Extreme Home Makeover
Edition
Texas Broad also
supplied internet to the Extreme Home Makeover Edition in the
Washington, Texas area. The
internet was used by the building & production crew during the
filming of the television show.
The rural
job site was not serviced by conventional high-speed internet
services such as DSL or Cable, but is covered by
Texas Broadband
Internet, one of Central Texas largest Wireless ISPs.
