COMMUNITY OUTREACH
We meet people where they are. Our outreach programs connect North Lawndale residents to technology, resources, and each other.
THE DIGITAL DIVIDE IS REAL
Poverty rate in North Lawndale
Households lack broadband
Adults without basic digital skills
These aren't just numbers. They're our neighbors, our families, our community. Graphene Gangway exists to close this gap — one person, one connection, one opportunity at a time.
