To kick-off Philly Tech Week, a national initiative to bridge the digital divide will officially launch in Philadelphia on Monday, April 22, 2013. The initiative called EveryoneOn is working to get Americans connected to the technology and skills they need to participate in the digital economy and compete in the 21st Century workforce. Locally, our goal is to reach families, students, and others throughout the Philadelphia area and provide free digital literacy training, discounted high-speed internet packages and low-cost computers. EveryoneOn is powered by Connect2Compete and made possible by the support of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.
