Power Up. Connect. Thrive.

Closing the Digital Divide. Powering Up Communities.

  • Our Mission

Power Up USA exists to close the digital divide by empowering underserved communities with access to technology, digital skills training, and creative media education that drive opportunity, workforce readiness, and economic mobility..

We envision a future where every youth, adult, and senior—regardless of race, income, or zip code—has the digital access, skills, and creative tools needed to succeed in an increasingly technology-driven world.
