Compudopt

41% of low-income households do not have access to a computer at home.

70% of students across the US do not have computer science education.

We believe every child deserves equal access to education and opportunity. Join us in bridging the digital divide and ensuring all children receive access to technology and STEM education!

Compudopt was founded in 2007 with the hope that gently used corporate computers would unlock opportunities for underserved students’ futures. Recognizing that corporate computers are shelved or sent to a landfill in less than three years, Johnathan Osha launched Compudopt with the goal of providing economically disadvantaged students with lightly used computers and an opportunity to broaden their technology skills. This goal served as the foundation for Compudopt with a mission to provide technology access and education to under-resourced youth and their communities. 

Our vision is for a future in which all students, regardless of their economic situation, have access to the tools and skills needed to compete and thrive in a technology-driven world.

Compudopt is uniquely qualified to help community members in North Texas achieve improving device access, high-speed in-home internet, and digital literacy skills. We provide a complete direct-service digital equity solution for economically disadvantaged households at no cost to participants.

Building on our 16 years of service in digital inclusion, we have served the Dallas metroplex since 2019 and, in that time, have distributed over 12,00 computers to Dallas residents, provided 22,500 hours of technology education to Dallas students, enrolled more than 800 under-resourced Dallas households in our own high-speed internet service, and provided an average of 500 households monthly with digital navigation resources and tech support.

With your support, we will be able to provide both technology access and education to local underserved youth in the community.
