Thousands of students in grades K-12 will benefit from grants awarded through the Making a Civic Investment program. Our purpose is to improve learning through technology, not just through the provision of hardware and software, but by teaching students to use technology to learn and thrive in today's technology-rich environment. The grant recipients are located across the United States and range widely from urban schools to Native American tribal communities, from online community newspapers to urban gardens.
Many programs are intergenerational.
Each program will receive annual funding for two years and will be eligible for continued funding for a total of five years. More than 160 community-based programs applied for grants. Narrowing the Digital Divide Worldcom, Brown Announce Grants to 20 Underserved U.S. Communities.
