Why We Do It

Technology now weaves through nearly every aspect of life, from education to work, health, culture and language, family and friendships, and environmental stewardship. That’s why we’re working to empower Indigenous Peoples living in BC with the knowledge, skills, and resources needed to leverage technology in our lives and communities.

How To Get Involved

Let’s reboot the system and empower First Nations in BC to leverage technology in their communities. Get involved today by partnering with us, donating to the Digital Skills Bursary Fund, working with our alumni, or applying for a job.
