At Inspiredu, the primary goal of the tech team focuses on repurposing and recycling devices with prior use – a process we like to regard as refurbishing previously enjoyed equipment. Those refurbished devices are thoroughly reviewed, and if they are salvageable, they enable our team to bridge the digital divide we readily see throughout our communities.

Board Member Highlight: Gary Jensen

Technology and education are focal points in my life. I was fortunate to be invited to the 2015 Inspire Gala where a mother talked about the impact of Inspiredu’s (PowerMyLearning at the time) family learning workshop in their lives. It was a moving testimonial. I called my wife on the way home and told her I wanted to be involved with the organization.
