We work to transform the lives of kids and young adults by expanding access to technology and information, and teaching them 21st century skills.
10 YEARS WORKING ON GLOBAL SCALE
Kids are our future. Today, they are growing up in a world where interacting with technology should be an integral part of their life, a path to becoming a successful adult and making a contribution. Yet many families lack access to this vital resource. We have identified three main barriers that limit kids’ access to technology and we are committed to overcoming these obstacles by thinking differently.
Our Initiatives
To give everyone access to technology and provide equal opportunity to succeed in the digital world, we focus on tackling these 3 key challenges:
Jobs of the future will require a solid foundation of digital literacy. Knowledge of coding is at the core of being successful in the digital economy. While not every kid enjoys coding, most kids do love video games. We leverage their engagement in video games to teach kids how to code.
Owning a desktop or a laptop is out of reach for many families, preventing them from participating in the digital economy. Access to affordable technology is crucial, and while donations make a difference, we believe financing can solve the problem when donations or direct purchases cannot scale.
When it comes to solving the internet connectivity challenge, we believe that storage is a cost-effective alternative to bandwidth. We create and invest in affordable devices and infrastructure that let people access content offline.
The whole world, empowered.
