Save to Favorites

OUR MISSION:

At Human-I-T, we create equitable access to opportunity by providing devices, internet access, digital skills training, and tech support for communities left on the wrong side of the digital divide-while at the same time, empowering businesses and organizations to do good by diverting technology from landfills to protect our planet.

We believe access to technology is a right, not a privilege. It’s what allows people to study remotely, apply for jobs, attend telehealth appointments, connect with distant family, or explore new ideas and perspectives.

In order to shrink this divide, we make it easy for our partners to do good-join us to create a world where everyone can access opportunities to unlock their full potential.

OUR VISION:

To inspire a world where conscious capitalism drives sustainable and just opportunities for all people, organizations, and our planet to thrive.
