Johnson City, TN – On Wednesday, Connected Tennessee presented 61 foster children throughout Northeast Tennessee with brand new computers through the Computers 4 Kids program. 

 

“With the Computers 4 Kids program, we are able to impact the lives of children in need across Tennessee through the gift of technology,” remarked Alyson Sumerford, Connected Tennessee’s State Operations Manager for East Tennessee. “Already nearly 4,000 children, families, and community organizations across the state have benefited from this program. From completing homework assignments to job searching to earning a degree online – we are proud to say that Computers 4 Kids is opening up a world of opportunities to the citizens of Tennessee who need it the most.”

 

Though the event was held at the Boone’s Creek Christian Church in Johnson City, recipients hailed from counties across the Tri-State region.
