Necessities for Children (NFC) is a non-profit organization with a mission of providing support to disadvantaged children. NFC's Tech for Kids program engages youth, from K-12, to achieve success in today's technology-driven world. We change the lives of foster and low-income children by providing a uniquely compelling form of fun and interactive early-stage computer science education. We improve tech-ed access and education for students from all backgrounds with a focus on those who have traditionally been under-privileged. Tech for Kids is a catalyst to inspire youth to achieve success in a technology-focused future and employs a unique holistic approach; fostering youth development in key areas. Children are inspired by our fun activities, which require teamwork and include hands-on learning, problem-solving skills, and computational thinking (think like a computer). We incorporate ergonomics for short-to-long-term health and optimizing learning. We provide a bridge to the real-life application of tech skills through interactive, innovative project-based classes. The outcomes for children include computational education and digital literacy. It’s essential and critical that we empower youth, giving skills and a competitive edge to succeed. Our Tech for Kids program prepares children for a future by providing early-stage tech education. Low-income youth struggle and are underemployed because of limited resources to assist them. NFC, through its Tech for Kids program, seamlessly fills an identified gap, providing a spring-board for low-income children to become competitive with equal advantage. EIN 47-5080298
