The Alliance is distributing approximately 500 devices to community partners across Western Massachusetts. Funded by the Massachusetts Broadband Institute’s (MBI) Connected & Online Program, this initiative addresses the region’s digital device gap by providing high-quality laptops, tablets, and Chromebooks to local organizations.

Through this program, partners can request and manage a fleet of loaner devices to directly support their community members.
