June Newsletter
Meaningful change happens when communities come together around a shared purpose. This month, we're excited to highlight the partnerships, programs, and people working every day to strengthen digital access and opportunity across Pennsylvania.
As we continue building on this momentum, our Board of Directors will gather this week to help shape and align on exciting future directions for KINBER. Their leadership and vision will help guide the next chapter of our work and the impact we can create together.
Thank you for your continued support, collaboration, and commitment to ensuring more individuals have the tools, skills, and resources they need to succeed. Together, we are helping create stronger, more connected communities.
Warm regards,
- Nathan Flood
President & CEO, KINBER
Building Capacity Through Community Partnership
This month, the Huntingdon County Library's Digital Learning Lab (Powered by KINBER) hosted its first training session with library staff from across the region.
The session highlighted how libraries can leverage technology, training, and community partnerships to better serve residents and address local digital access challenges. As Huntingdon County Library continues to grow its Digital Access & Support Hub, it is also helping share knowledge and best practices with neighboring organizations.
Lisa Erickson, Library Director at Huntingdon County Library, shared, "KINBER has been an invaluable partner in helping the Huntingdon County Library transform this opportunity into a sustainable digital inclusion initiative. From the beginning, KINBER has provided guidance, resources, and expertise that have helped us move from the idea stage to implementation."
By building local capacity and fostering regional collaboration, these efforts are helping create a stronger network of support for individuals seeking to build digital skills, access resources, and participate more fully in today's connected world.
