Our Challenge

Since 2013, E2D and a broad-based coalition of municipal leaders, corporate supporters, community educators, college students, and hundreds of civic volunteers in the Charlotte Region have come together to study the pervasiveness of digital exclusion and to create digital solutions one family at a time.

Over seven years, E2D has made great strides to create digital solutions to families in the greater Charlotte community.

  • We have partnered with 150 schools within the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School (CMS) system.

  • We have provided laptop computers, digital access, and computer training to over 12,000 families.

  • We have received over $150,000 in grants in 2020 to pursue digital inclusion for families across our community.

    • Bank of America, Brighthouse Financial, Wells Fargo, Google Fiber, AvidXchange, Crown Castle, Pamlico Capital, etc.

  • We have been recognized for several awards at the local and national level for digital inclusion accomplishments.
    • The Blue Diamond Award for Best Value Non-Profit in Technology by IT-Ology in 2016
    • “The Most Innovative Digital Inclusion” program in the US in 2015 by The National League of Cities, Next Century Cities & Google Fiber
    • We were named one of the “Top 30 Technologists, Transformers, and Trailblazers” by The Center for Digital Education

Along with launching our “Connect the Homeless” Program, which will affect more than 3,000 CMS students, we have launched our Re-Image CLT initiative and opened computer labs at West Charlotte High School, Garinger High School, Olympic High School and  South Mecklenberg High School. Finally, as we have historically done in the past, we plan to double our computer distributions from last year to help close the “homework gap” for Charlotte students.

As satisfying as it is to say that E2D has closed the digital gap for over 12,000 families, E2D knows that the solutions required to provide the essential home-based digital tools for ALL remaining students in Charlotte totals at least another 12,000 student homes.
