Donate

Digital equity champions Wendy and Pete have pledged $100 for each new monthly donor (of ANY dollar amount) before the end of the year, up to $5,000!

Would you consider supporting digital inclusion all year long as a monthly donor?

By supporting digital equity in the community with your donation, you are providing adults with the skills they need to enter the workforce, allowing families to better support their child's education, assisting veterans' and rural-area families access to online healthcare support, and offering veterans and seniors a chance to improve their social and civic engagement!

$15,000 pays for a full year of free weekly Walk-In Computer Help or Tech Repair Clinic at a local community center or library --helping hundreds of low-income adults and seniors needing help learning how to use computers or looking for tech repair assistance.

$4,000 buys 200 laptop cases for the free laptops we give to low-income households without computers over the course of a year.

$1,000 covers the cost of refurbishing 20 donated laptops, which go to low-income households without a computer.

$500 covers the cost of printing our Computer Literacy Guides for one year, which go to laptop recipients and visitors to our Computer Help Clinics.

$300 allows us to offer one free, 2-hour Walk-In Computer Help or Tech Repair Clinic at a community center or library.

$100 buys hard drives for two donated laptops that we couldn't refurbish without new hard drives.

$50 covers the cost refurbishing one donated laptop to distribute to a family or adult in need.

ANY amount helps us close the digital divide in Dane County, which means a better prepared workforce, more successful students, healthier community, and more engaged seniors and veterans! Learn more about our Digital Equity Project, working to promote digital equity in Dane County.
