When Harrison School District 2 turned to e-learning last spring,they made sure to provide each student with a laptop and the tools needed to succeed at home.But one remaining need in many families was Internet access.
   Christine O'Brien,spokesperson for District 2 said, "When you had many people learning and working from home,sometimes there were Internet glitches.We wanted to avoid that and make sure students in our district could have equal chances to learn and that our families could learn from home as well."
   O'Brien said that this year they made sure to survey each of their students to see who exactly needed the Internet.
   "This year we were really specific about asking whether families had Internet service at home without a phone," she said.They discovered that about a thousand families needed some sort of Internet connection.
   And that's where Altia came into play.A local software company heard there was an Internet shortage for students and it stepped in to see how they could help.Teaming up with local foundations(基金會(huì)),they were able to provide a monthly Internet service that allows many people to have Internet access at the same time.Mike Juran,CEO of Altia said,"At Altia we talked to Randy Rocha at District 2 and I just put out an email to friends and people that I knew and that made its way back to Pikes Peak Community Foundation and Norwood Foundation and people spread that around.Within weeks we were able to get something done."
   "The community came together and helped us piece this part.We worked so hard as a school district to get those devices into the hands of students but this was a piece that we weren't ready to do.We hadn't budgeted(預(yù)算)for it,so the community's coming together to help our families in this way was really truly amazing," said O'Brien.
