CompUtah Coalition
The purpose of this coalition is to
1. Ensure that all Utah families have affordable access to essential at-home technology and skills to fully participate in a digital world and become self-reliant.
2. Foster partnerships with community organizations, schools, and businesses to provide the used and refurbished computer devices needed to help low income families and individuals enjoy the benefits of a digital world.
