This #GivingTuesday, our friends at Masco have a gift for you — a chance to double your impact on the lives of Southeastern Michigan families. 

We all know that technology has become a crucial need for students in 2020. But did you know that in Michigan, more than 400,000 students lack access to a computer and high-speed internet? 

We’re working to change that reality — but we need your help. Will you give a gift to help close the technology gap? Thanks to the generosity of our partner Masco, your impact will be DOUBLED! All gifts to made between Nov. 24 and Dec. 1 — #GivingTuesday — to help United Way close the digital divide will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to $25,000. Click here to donate.

Every $200 raised helps provide students and senior citizens with laptops, internet access and other technology. That means we could impact the lives of 250 people this #GivingTuesday.

Join us. Let’s close the digital divide together.

Don’t miss out!
