PCs for People to Provide Low-Cost Devices and Tech Support for Eligible Philadelphians
Posted by City of Philadelphia Office of Innovation & Technology on April 4, 2023
The City of Philadelphia’s Office of Innovation and Technology and the Digital Literacy Alliance (DLA) has announced its partnership with PCs for People, the selected entity in its most recent RFP as part of the Philadelphia City Fund. PCs for People will provide low-cost devices and tech support for eligible Philadelphians.
Through its partnership with the DLA, PCs for People will offer no-cost and low-cost computers online and in-store for eligible customers starting at $30 for a desktop and $50 for a laptop computer in-store. Eligible customers can also subscribe to pay-per-month wireless internet access for $15/month (or free with the federal Affordable Connectivity Program benefit).
There is more to come, but a few key takeaways are:
- Corporations or Organizations can support the work through device donations
- Organizations can partner to get computers in bulk for clients
- Residents can go online now and order devices to be shipped directly to them
- A storefront location will be opening soon and will provide tech support to the community. Stay tuned!
