Bridging the Digital Divide:
Compudopt Joins North Texas Giving Day
As North Texas Giving Day approaches, culminating on September 18, 2025, with giving opening on August 28, Compudopt is proud to be among the registered nonprofits joining this inspiring community-wide philanthropic movement.
What’s North Texas Giving Day All About?
Organized by the Communities Foundation of Texas (CFT), North Texas Giving Day is the largest one-day giving event in the nation. In 2024, the event raised over $70 million, supporting more than 3,200 local nonprofits across 20 counties. 100% of every donation goes directly to participating organizations, as CFT and its sponsors cover transaction and technology fees.
Compudopt’s Mission and Impact
Since its founding in 2007, Compudopt has been dedicated to closing the digital divide by providing technology access and education to under-resourced youth and communities.
Our programs include:
- Refurbishing and distributing like-new computers
- Offering high-speed, low-cost internet solutions
- Delivering digital literacy training and tech education
- Direct service to households at no cost to participants
In North Texas alone, Compudopt has already distributed more than 25,978 computers to Dallas-area residents, provided technology access and support to 28,056 individuals, and enrolled over 3,013 under-resourced households in our high-speed internet service.
Why This Matters
Compudopt's involvement in North Texas Giving Day directly aligns with the campaign’s spirit of empowering local nonprofits. As part of this year’s philanthropic surge, they can reach new donors, amplify impact in underserved neighborhoods, and continue driving digital access forward.
For our second year participating, we’ve set a goal of $5,000. These funds will go directly into our programs, providing computers, internet, and tech education to families who need them.
