This GivingTuesday, your support matters more than ever.
🎁 Give today: https://bit.ly/GiftConnection

A major federal funding cut, $14.1M statewide, has put programs like Vinfen’s TechConnect at risk, threatening internet access and digital tools for the people we serve.

TechConnect provides devices, one-on-one training, and ongoing support so people can communicate, learn, and live more independently. Staff like Assistive Technology Specialist Jill Hartmann see every day how critical this program is.

Your GivingTuesday gift can help keep TechConnect going and ensure no one is left behind in an increasingly digital world. Every dollar truly makes a difference.

All items ship straight to the team.
Prefer to donate in person? Drop-offs are welcomed Monday–Friday, 8 a.m.–4 p.m., at 106 Bassett Lane, Suite 3, Hyannis, MA — just call ahead before you visit: 978-857-2877

🎁 Give Today: https://bit.ly/GiftConnection

We see first-hand how connection empowers the people we serve. In today’s digital world, connection also means access to technology. Through our TechConnect Network, we can provide the people we serve with resources to access technology and learn digital literacy skills.

This year, federal funding cuts have eliminated millions of dollars in support of programs like TechConnect. Without your generosity, many people we serve may be left behind in an increasingly digital world.

Give the gift of connection today at the link above, where you can also learn more about how Vinfen residents Denise and Sandy, who are both legally blind, have learned to use technology to stay in touch with family, find their favorite music, and become more independent.
