Kids in Tech

The closure of schools due to covid-19 has left hundreds of our students without any access to the resources that are now required for an education that sets them up to be successful in the world around them. Our work in underserved communities continues to address these inequities virtually, delivering mentorship and programming to students who need it most. We launched the fund for digital equity to supply students with the resources they need to continue their education from home and to pivot as an organization to remote learning as an organization. Our after school Tech club program is now conducted via remote learning platforms. Our remote learning after school Tech club program consists of small-group supervised study for grades k-8 monday-thursday between the hours of 3pm to 6pm. Kids work with parents and our school and youth development organization partners to set the guidelines and expectations for each student. Our role in the learning process is to provide a structured environment conducive to learning and guide each student towards goal achievement, while encouraging healthy social interactions with peers.
