Did You Know?

Cleveland is the Worst Connected Big City in the Nation.*

 

In a city where 1 out of 4 people live under the poverty line, we are ALSO the worst connected city in the nation. No access to internet makes basic human rights like education, job opportunities, and healthcare unobtainable.

 

The Phe’be Foundation wants to change that.

 

By standing in the financial gap of the digital divide, Wired 2 Work aims to connect the unconnected by providing internet access for up to 1 year while also providing the financial tools needed to succeed.
