Best Buy, the Annenberg Foundation, and the Greater LA Education Foundation are seeking partners to help close the digital divide for youth in LA County and prepare them for the careers of the future. Over the coming years, we will open a network of 10 to 12 Teen Tech Centers in existing nonprofits, infusing new technology, mentoring, training, and career development into project-based learning experiences. Partners receive a capital investment, additional operating support, and cutting-edge technology.
This summer, three community-based organizations will be selected to host Teen Tech Centers. Our search is focused on three critical regions: southeast Los Angeles, Compton and El Monte.
