About CFY-Los Angeles
Computers for Youth-Los Angeles is in the midst of a rapid expansion, from serving 600 families annually to serving nearly 16,000 families over the next two years.
A key driver of this historic growth is CFY’s receipt of one of the largest U.S. Department of Commerce grants in California for the “Sustainable Broadband Adoption” portion of the Broadband Technology Opportunities Program (BTOP). At scale, CFY-Los Angeles will be the largest provider of its kind in southern California.
CFY-Los Angeles partners with low-income schools, both traditional and charter, to improve the Home Learning Environment of their students.
