Emergency Connectivity Fund Available Now for Schools and Libraries
Help students in your community close the homework gap. The Emergency Connectivity Fund’s (ECF) second funding application period is still open through Oct 13, 2021.
Do you know any librarians, teachers, or school administrators? They may qualify for funding from the Emergency Connectivity Fund Program, which covers reasonable costs of laptop and tablet computers; Wi-Fi hotspots; modems; routers; and broadband connectivity purchases for off-campus use by students, school staff, and library patrons.
The purpose of this fund is to help schools and libraries provide the tools and services their communities need for remote learning during the COVID-19 emergency period. ECF will help provide relief to millions of students, school staff, and library patrons and close the Homework Gap for students who currently lack internet access or the devices they need to connect to classrooms. The deadline to apply is coming up on October 13th!
