YOUR DONATIONS HELP US KEEP GOING
Our ability to help more students is directly tied to your support through our fundraising efforts.
Your donation will go directly to supporting rural and economically disadvantaged students by providing computer science and engineering equipment, curriculum, scholarships, and assistive technology in classrooms and libraries across the country.
These programs support students in their pursuit of a better life through technology education.
