About TechBridge

TechBridge is a nonprofit that arms other nonprofits on the frontline of alleviating the causes of poverty and technology that will allow them to expand the impact of their mission for the millions of men, women, and children who suffer from lack of access to shelter, food, employment, education, healthcare, and financial literacy.

TechBridge works to give people the best chance of avoiding poverty through technology enhancements that build capacity and facilitate collaboration within communities. We support organizations that work within our four pillars: Hunger Relief, Homeless Support, Social Justice, and Workforce Development.
