Mobile phone technology can change lives through effective access to information and communication and we are bringing it to those in need in our communities.
I have witnessed the positive impact technology has on individuals and communities. From wireless emergency notification systems to mobile applications designed to make resources accessible to homeless people; technology offers new and unlimited possibilities to impact people in need throughout the world. For homeless people who need a life-changing tool, the two greatest struggles we consistently face have been gaps in accessibility and reliability of the mobile phone technology.
