The document proposes establishing a digital learning center to provide computer skills training and internet access to underserved communities, particularly single-parent families. The center would offer classes in computer skills, leadership, entrepreneurship, and provide an IT lab with latest technology and instructors. It would pursue funding from computer donation and grant programs. The timeline is 3 months to set up infrastructure and deliver the program. The proposed first year budget is $179,535. Sustainability after 3 years would come from making it a vocational training center. Impact would be making communities safer, producing professionals, reducing crime, and improving education.
