volunteers needed, Keyspot Outreach Weekend

Posted by on September 03, 2012

One out two people in the city of Philadelphia either cannot read, or don’t have Internet access to read something simple like an email. There is a digital divide in Philadelphia, and it’s real. But KEYSPOT is working to give residents citywide the information and access they need. Through KEYSPOT, Powered by the Freedom Rings Partnership, over 50 community organizations work to provide free Internet access, computer classes, 1-on-1 training and more to all Philadelphia neighborhoods. And on Saturday, September 8, and Sunday, September 9, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., KEYSPOT will share this important program with residents shopping at six Brown’s ShopRite supermarkets. We need volunteers to help us spread the good word! Sign up to talk with residents about the digital divide and free services that can help them overcome this barrier. Anyone that knows basic technology and wants to overcome the digital divide is welcomed to volunteer. We need you! Sign-up to help now at http://ph.ly/KEYSPOT.
