    The enduring impact of inflation, coupled with the responsibility of working students to contribute to family finances, intensifies the challenges associated with obtaining essential technology. Despite College Bound AZ’s diligent efforts in securing grants, the supply of laptops falls short of the mounting demand. The number of students qualifying for Pell grants has risen to an average of 65 each year, surpassing the available laptops. (Average cost of laptops is $500) Consequently, the pursuit of equitable access to technology for all deserving students remains an urgent challenge for College Bound AZ amidst these persistent difficulties. Your support for the laptop program holds significant potential to meet this critical need and alleviate the financial burden associated with acquiring a laptop for students and their families. By contributing to this initiative, you play a pivotal role in fostering equal opportunities and empowering students to overcome barriers to educational success.
