The US Commerce Department announced that CFY has been awarded two grants totaling $23M to improve the Home Learning Environment and increase broadband adoption in the nation’s two largest school districts—New York City and Los Angeles. These awards give CFY a hard-won stamp of approval and will have wide-reaching effects across the country.
In New York, CFY will partner with the New York City Department of Information Technology & Telecommunications and the New York City Department of Education, working directly with schools to serve nearly 19,000 students while educating their parents about affordable broadband options.
