Doubling Down on ConnectHome

GitHub hosted Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julián Castro to discuss ConnectHome, a pioneering public-private partnership aimed at providing high-speed internet access to over 102,000 low-income households in public housing, affecting nearly 200,000 children. The initiative seeks to bridge the digital divide, which disproportionately affects low-income residents of color and impedes their educational and job opportunities. GitHub is significantly investing in ConnectHome with a $500,000 financial commitment, $3 million in product support, and staff time, emphasizing the importance of connectivity in fostering innovation and breaking cycles of poverty. The company encourages others in the tech sector to contribute financially and join the initiative to support digital equity and cultivate a diverse talent pool for the future tech workforce.
