My Project
Providing iPads to seniors transitioning into college will make a significant difference in their learning by giving them access to user-friendly, portable tools that support organization, note-taking, and communication. With features like text-to-speech, larger fonts, and digital note-taking apps, these devices will help students adapt to college coursework while enhancing accessibility and independence.
Our goal is to bridge the digital divide by equipping students with essential technology that fosters confidence, improves time management, and encourages academic success.
Many of these students may not have had access to personal digital devices before, making this an invaluable resource as they navigate new academic expectations. They are hardworking, determined, and eager to embrace new opportunities, and by providing them with iPads, we can empower them to take full advantage of their college experience.
