Advancing Facebook's mission to "give people the power to share and make the world more open and connected"; see Introducing the Internet.org App (Facebook newsroom) for more details

"Facebook’s newest mobile app doesn’t compete with other apps, like Snapchat. It competes with being offline.

The social network said Thursday it had launched an Internet.org app in Zambia to provide free access to Facebook and other online services to people who might otherwise have no Internet access. The app is a partnership with India’s Bharti Airtel, and available only to Bharti subscribers in Zambia."
