Communities across the country are shaping and strengthening the systems that make computer ownership possible. This network brings together organizations that prepare and place computers, support residents, and share practical knowledge that advances this work.
What you can do here
- Sign up to participate in the Network
- Engage in a community of organizations seeking solutions to computer ownership
- Access resources, join discussions, and learn from peers
This network is made up of over 1700 community organizations and partners that help people in their region get computers for education, employment, health, and daily life. Members include nonprofits, community centers, schools, local governments, and other groups involved in sourcing, preparing, or deploying computers.
We help communities strengthen three connected areas of practice:
Reliable supply pathways
Preparation processes that ready computers for new use
Deployment through trusted local partners
These components work together. When aligned, they form a community system capable of long-term impact.
Across the country, organizations are developing practical methods to increase computer ownership. These include:
- Local hubs that prepare donated computers for deployment
- Coordinated distribution efforts among schools, nonprofits, and municipal partners
- Programs that pair computer ownership with digital skills training
- Community navigators who help residents access services and troubleshoot issues
Why this matters
Computer ownership is foundational to opportunity. Smartphones can only take people so far in job applications, coursework, and telehealth visits. Essential tasks often require a full, large-screen computer.
Digitunity’s role is to shape and strengthen the systems that make computer ownership possible. The organizations in our network are essential to this work. They connect computers to people, and they help us understand what is happening in communities across the country.
