All servicesFree Tech Programs for All Ages
Compudopt offers free technology programs for people of all ages, from grade 1 through adults. Kids and teens learn coding, programming, robotics, and digital skills through fun, hands-on projects. Most students get to keep a free refurbished laptop when they finish their program. Programs include STEAM activities, career exploration, and job readiness training. Adult learners can take digital literacy classes to learn basic computer and internet skills. All programs are designed to help people from under-resourced communities gain technology skills for school, work, and life.
Device Donation Program
Compudopt accepts old computers, laptops, and other devices from people and companies. They fix up these devices and give them for free to students and families who don't have computers at home. This helps close the digital divide by making sure everyone has access to technology. You can donate personal devices or corporate devices. They handle data destruction safely and will pick up your devices. All donations are tax-deductible and help provide technology access to under-resourced communities.
Community Portal for Digital Resources
Compudopt's Community Portal helps people find resources for technology, money skills, and health. You can get help with getting affordable internet, learning to use computers, finding financial education, and accessing health programs. The portal has both national resources that work anywhere in the US and local resources in cities like Houston, Atlanta, Chicago, and Dallas. This is a free online tool to connect people with digital equity resources in their community.
Most people want to be part of something. They just don't know where to start. That's not a motivation problem. It's a navigation problem.
