April 9, 2026: Bridging the Digital Divide

In the heart of Silicon Valley, where technology is at its peak, you’d expect everyone to be connected, but the East Side remained underserved and lacking reliable access.

Together, they’re building a community Wi-Fi network to bridge the digital divide and bring connectivity to those who need it most.
