IMPERIAL, Calif. (KYMA) – 33 Imperial Valley College (IVC) students are getting a major boost to their education after receiving brand new laptops through a technology assistance program.
The initiative is supported by the IVC Foundation and AT&T, and funded through a $20,000 grant aimed at expanding digital access in underserved communities.
“Companies like AT&T are not obligated to support these types of projects. They do it because they see the value of investing in Imperial Valley and specifically students here at IVC,” said Todd Evangelist, Executive Director of the IVC Foundation. “They see the potential in these students, and so does the IVC Foundation.”
