Mission Statement
We are a non-profit. Our mission is to provide students and families with access to the internet via computers, tablets, and/or smartphones. We believe in providing an equal opportunity for all, helping to level the playing field in information technology. More than sixty percent(60%+) of America’s jobs require technical skills. The lack of computer access and technology programs in schools has caused many children to grow up without the necessary interaction with current technologies to succeed in this new environment causing a major disadvantage when entering higher education or employment.
Description
Our focus is on providing computers, cellphones with service, and/or tablets to students(11- 24 years old) which have achieved honor roll(90%+) status for an entire school year. We also provide basic computer skill training to those ages 40+ at church and recreational facilities.
