IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0The second program category is Education-digital literacy training for low income community residents, supported by grants from the Digital Inclusion Fund (Greater Kansas City Community Foundation), the R.C. Kemper Family Trust, and the Gourley Family Foundation. This is the program category that involves the bulk of the 25 volunteers we engaged throughout the year, to assist with mentoring and teaching basic to advanced computer skills to local residents.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0The third program category is the sale of refurbished computers at affordable prices (as low as $50 for a desktop, monitor, keyboard and mouse) to low income residents. The double positive about this program category is that all the computers come from community donations, saving landfills from thousands of pounds of electronic waste. In addition, Connecting For Good creates and supports jobs for refurbishing, both among regular staff as well as paid and unpaid interns from a variety of workforce development agencies throughout the area.
