Please visit the new page to apply.
Laptops 4 Learning (L4L) gives those who understand the power of education an opportunity to give back to their community. L4L impacts the economically underprivileged by:
- Giving students the opportunity to maximize learning
- Helping them rise up to a better future/life circumstance
- Providing them an equal chance to succeed, where they otherwise wouldn't have.
Ambassadors help in a variety of ways by:
- Sharing what we do with organizations and education professionals
- Inviting people to fundraisers and events
- Attracting donors
- Speaking to groups.
Additionally, our Ambassadors are the eyes and ears out in the community - listening for those may be in need but don't realize there are affordable laptops available to them.

Mission Statement
Laptops 4 Learning (L4L) is a nonprofit 501(c) (3) organization, whose mission is to provide laptop computers to economically disadvantaged K thru College students and military service veterans.
Description
Millions of students across the U. S. are affected by America’s "digital technology gap" due to the nonexistent or inadequate presence of technology in their homes. While computer access is available to nearly 95% of high-income households, 40% of households making under $30,000 in annual income lack a desktop or laptop computer in their homes. The need became even more pronounced during the COVID-19 Pandemic when many schools stopped holding in-person classes, necessitating families to rapidly adjust to virtual, on-line schooling and the requirement to work from home.
Laptops 4 Learning partners with public and private school districts, alternative schools, colleges, community organizations, churches and veteran support groups, to identify and connect with students and veterans who are without a computer. L4L's vision is to create the opportunity for ALL students in need to obtain the laptop technology needed to be successful.
