Inspiredu: Working to close the digital divide in Georgia
Inspiredu is a Georgia-based non-profit working to bridge the gaps in device ownership, digital literacy, and digital access by providing Georgia’s most marginalized and vulnerable citizens with the devices and training they need to become a part of the global internet community. In Inspiredu’s digital skilling workshops, participants learn fundamental technical skills such as operating the computer and accessing the internet, practicing internet safety, using basic software such as Microsoft Office, understanding how to use technology to increase financial wellness or acquire certifications to bolster work readiness, and understanding how to use online resources to support student learning. The communities that Inspiredu serves, both rural and urban, are families of meager or lower incomes who lack the devices and training necessary to take advantage of recent broadband initiatives in Georgia.

Together, we can close the Digital Divide.
Inspiredu is excited to share that we will be hosting our first Digital Summit this fall. In the months leading up to this event, we will be sharing information about how our program aligns with the United Nation’s (UN) Global Goals for Sustainable Development. In 2015, the UN challenged communities around the world to build a better, more sustainable future by 2030 in 17 specific ways. The work we do at Inspiredu aligns closely with 5 of these goals
