The Digital Inclusion Alliance of San Antonio (DIASA) is working collaboratively with local technology firms, non-profits, businesses, and donors to fill a need in the San Antonio community to close the digital divide. According to US Census Data, 1 in 4 San Antonio families do not have internet access. Made evident during the pandemic as virtual classrooms became normalized, lack of digital equity is pervasive in large swaths of our city. 

While smaller-scale efforts to address this concern have been launched through a number of organizations, there is currently a gap in larger-scale services. Cities of similar size have established programs where families and organizations in need can obtain refurbished, discounted digital devices. 

Our goal is to build out a pipeline of resources to intake acceptable devices for refurbishing that can be processed for distribution in San Antonio communities, schools, and organizations in need.
