What We Do

Founded in May 2016, EqOpTech, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, promotes Equal Opportunity learning and STEM education through Technology in under-served communities

 

Our Mission

Our goal is to bridge the digital and education divide by enabling free, equal access to technology and STEM-related education resources in under-served community while inspiring and engaging student volunteers to give back and serve as role models to gain meaningful experiences and leadership skills. 


Be a role model and inspire others to join in on the effort!
