The After School Advantage (ASA) Program

Aug 18, 2016 at 09:00 am by sara


IGT is a world wide innovator in the gaming industry. Their community giving program is currently offering funding through their The After School Advantage (ASA) Program. The program aims to bridge the "Digital Divide" for children from disadvantaged backgrounds who do not have access to computers at home. "Its goal is to address the needs of underprivileged/at-risk children ages five to 18 with a meaningful, yet fun, learning experience during the critical after-school hours in a safe environment. It does this by providing qualifying non-profit community agencies and public schools with digital learning centers. Each digital learning center is unique in its design and specific to an organization’s custom needs." Funds from this program have been used to build over 270 computer labs around the world. If your organization is a non-profit 501(C)(3) community agency or public school, you may be eligible to apply for the program.  Click HERE for further info and contact BRI for help with your application.  Applications are accepted on a rolling basis.   girl with book
