Education Super Highway is a national non-profit organization dedicated to closing the digital divide for the 17 million households in the U.S. that have access to the Internet but cannot afford to connect. The organization focuses on underserved communities, particularly in affordable multi-dwelling units (MDUs), and has successfully connected nearly 47 million students in 99.3% of America's schools to high-speed broadband. Their key initiatives include deploying free Wi-Fi to low-income apartment buildings and advocating for a new broadband affordability benefit to ensure that households can afford the new networks being established. Education Super Highway's unique approach combines data-driven strategies with partnerships across federal, state, and local levels to effectively address the broadband affordability gap, making them a leader in the digital equity space.
