The Education Foundation of Palm Beach County is the nexus of Palm Beach County public-school system, the private sector, and the community. The Education Foundation facilitates student achievement by supporting high-quality public education through partnerships, grants, events, and public awareness.
The Education Foundation continues to be an amazing resource for this initiative. Thanks to their tireless efforts, we currently have commitments for $962,939 to purchase WiFi extenders.
The Quantum Foundation's mission is to fund initiatives that improve the health of Palm Beach County residents. "Community Partners of South Florida (CPSFL) is receiving nearly $500,000 in grants to help close Palm Beach County's digital divide. The funding will provide for CPSFL to hire and deploy three full-time community technology navigators and a project manager to work directly with residents in their homes or at community sites to provide internet services, devices, training, tech support, and educational content."
These generous donations are helping students across Palm Beach County including some specific municipalities have a strong, fast, free, and reliable WiFi connection for educational learning opportunities. We are extremely thankful to the following community partners for their continued support:
