SAN DIEGO, March 18, 2026—Spectrum, in collaboration with the San Diego Futures Foundation, hosted an Internet Awareness Class tailored for seniors at San Marcos Mobile Estates. As digital technologies become vital to everyday tasks, this initiative equips seniors with the tools to confidently navigate the online world while avoiding scams and privacy risks. The event supports Spectrum’s commitment to closing the digital divide and extends the company’s ongoing investment in digital inclusion.
Across Spectrum’s service area, Spectrum Digital Education supports nonprofits that help their community members – from seniors and veterans to students, working adults, and families in need – access the digital education skills and tools they need to stay connected. Grants support initiatives like digital literacy programs, workforce readiness training, and efforts that provide donated or affordable laptops and other devices. Funding also helps power community tech spaces, like computer labs and learning hubs, where people can get hands-on support using online tools and services safely and effectively.
Since 2017, Spectrum Digital Education has partnered with local nonprofits, such as the San Diego Futures Foundation, to help community members build their digital skills and access the tools and devices they need to succeed in their education, careers and everyday lives, bringing the program’s total investment to more than $12 million.
The San Diego Futures Foundation, a nonprofit organization based in City Heights, helps bridge the digital divide in San Diego County by making information technology available to underserved populations and provide technology equipment, training, support, IT outsourcing and digital media services to nonprofit organizations, disadvantaged small businesses, low-income households, people with disabilities and seniors.
“Spectrum Digital Education is focused on removing real barriers by helping people build the digital skills required to apply for jobs, pursue education and manage essential online services,” said Rahman Khan, Group Vice President, Community Impact.
“Through our nonprofit partnerships, we help turn connectivity into capability by creating pathways to opportunity and independence.”
