Why It Matters

Every ticket, mask, and moment of support fuels our mission: After-school tech programs, youth coding camps, and hands-on workshops that empower kids from underserved neighborhoods to become creators, not just consumers, of technology. This night is a spark in the movement to change the narrative through innovation and equity. By attending and supporting, you help us bridge the digital divide and foster the next generation of innovators. Proceeds from this fundraiser will be used to fund the Free 2026 Summer Tech Camp For Kids.

The Convergence Initiative is a volunteer-driven, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (U.S. Federal Tax ID:33-4099702)

Our mission: to provide free and equitable access to digital skills, coding education, and technology training for underserved communities. We do this by offering hands-on workshops, online courses, community events, and mentorship opportunities — all at no cost to learners.

Your donations directly support our educational programs, digital tools, outreach efforts, and community-driven initiatives.
