How they approach the work
Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.
- Community-Partnered Family Identificationmethodology: community-partner distributionBy partnering with established nonprofits to identify and nominate low-income families, we ensure equitable and accurate targeting of technology resources because community-based organizations have trusted relationships and contextual knowledge of household needs.
- Digital Inclusion Through Device Redistributionmethodology: device-redistributionBy collecting and refurbishing donated computers from corporations and distributing them at no cost to low-income households, we close the digital divide because access to technology enables educational, economic, and social opportunities that are otherwise out of reach.
