Beta Builders

OUR OBJECTIVES:

Community Engagement

We will empower the community by providing services and programs not commonly found in black and brown neighborhoods.

Accessibility

We will provide access to technological education opportunities for all ages, not just young people, in order to increase the overall computer literacy rates and opportunities for black and brown people.

Transparency

We will rely on an advisory committee to oversee decision making and provide additional perspective.

Train Students

We will train students to become tech literate and help them seek temporary and full-time employment in the challenging but satisfying tech industry.
