An update about the future of Tech Goes Home.

Friends,
Over the past 25 years, Tech Goes Home has played a leading role in efforts to close the digital divide in Massachusetts. TGH programs have reached more than 50,000 people, distributed tens of thousands of digital devices, and provided nearly 1 million hours of digital skills training.
Unfortunately, like so many other nonprofits across the country, TGH is facing an extremely challenging financial environment and a deeply uncertain future funding landscape. Despite our best efforts over many months, we have been unable to find a sustainable path forward, and we have made the incredibly difficult decision to wind down Tech Goes Home operations by February.
We are working actively to identify potential opportunities for some of TGH’s proven programming to carry on under a different organization, and to find a home for TGH’s curricular resources and the data we have collected over the years, so that they can be used to inform future efforts to close the digital divide. We will share updates as they become available via our LinkedIn page.
The work of closing the digital divide remains as necessary and urgent as ever. We thank you for your partnership, support, and friendship over the past 25 years, and for your continued commitment to the cause of digital equity.
Sincerely,
Dahlia Bousaid Cox
CEO
Joe Hedal
Chair, Tech Goes Home Board of Directors
As technology evolves faster than ever and becomes more intertwined with daily life, the urgency for Tech Goes Home’s work has never been greater.
Board Member Daisy Ortega knows firsthand that digital skills are public health skills – they help families access school updates, connect to care, and engage more fully in their communities.
Across Massachusetts, thousands of residents still lack the access, training and confidence to navigate essential online systems that shape health, education, and opportunity. Through the Time Is Now campaign, Tech Goes Home is working to expand programs that meet people where they are, build digital confidence and close the digital divide one learner at a time.
Join Daisy in supporting digital equity that strengthens our communities. Link in bio to donate.

Every day, our lives become more connected to the digital world, but not everyone has the same access.
As we mark our 25th anniversary, Tech Goes Home is launching the Time Is Now campaign to raise $500,000 to expand digital access and essential skills training across Massachusetts.
We can’t let progress stall when it’s needed most. Together, we can ensure digital equity for all, creating pathways to opportunity and connection.

AI has the potential to strengthen how nonprofits serve their communities, but emerging technologies also present significant challenges. At Tech Goes Home, we’re committed to ensuring that technologies like AI advance equity — and don’t widen the digital divide. Together, we can build a more connected and inclusive future for all.

We are so excited to announce that Dahlia Bousaid Cox has been named the next CEO of Tech Goes Home! Dahlia originally joined the team in 2022 and rose to become interim CEO earlier this year. Throughout that time, she has provided steady, strategic leadership and worked closely with the TGH staff, the Board of Directors, partners, and funders to help TGH deliver on its core mission to close the digital divide in Massachusetts and beyond.
As TGH marks its 25th anniversary, we are thrilled to welcome Dahlia to this new role and excited about her vision and ability to lead Tech Goes Home into its next chapter. Congratulations, Dahlia!
Recently, the Tech Goes Home team had the honor of presenting to a cohort of 26 fellows from the @mandelawashfellowship for Young African Leaders at @bridgestateu . This fellowship brings emerging leaders from African countries to the United States for academic and leadership training. Together, we harnessed this international exchange of knowledge and expertise to discuss how Massachusetts-based initiatives can be adapted to bridge the digital divide globally, enhance employability, and foster long-term economic empowerment.
Tech Goes Home is grateful to be honored alongside our partner @netscoutinc as a recipient of the 2025 Community Collaborator Awards from @bostonbusinessjournal .
