Technology can be expensive and for some families in our community, is simply not something they can afford. Technological literacy is both an essential educational tool for students and a critical life skill. By referring students who are at risk of falling behind because they lack access to technology at home, principals are identifying those who are most in need of support.
Donations to this fund support Chromebooks for Kids - decreasing technology-based inequity amongst our most vulnerable students and families.
Chromebooks For Kids
Chromebooks for Kids aims to reduce technology-based inequity, and support students’ discovery and learning at home. Working with our Principals through a referral system, these brand new education-grade devices are given to students in grades K-12 who will benefit the most.
During the 2023-2024 school year, 538 devices were distributed to 76 different schools across our city. This was the highest demand we have seen for the program yet! For an updated view of all of the schools that have received chromebooks, please take a look at our Interactive Map!
