Connecting individuals with refurbished technology in order to assist with their education.
The impact of COVID-19 has made access to technology more important than ever before. Tech Access Program (TAP) aims to provide students across the continental U.S. with the technology they need to supplement their education.
This program will allow for individuals enrolled in grades K-12 or continued education to get directly connected with refurbished technology.
While schools often provide students technology for remote learning, it is typically returned at the end of the school year leaving students without those resources during breaks. Students pursuing higher education are usually not provided with technology when classes are remote which impedes their ability to complete their education.
