It is in the area of South Phoenix, a very diverse and culturally rich community. However, the demographics of this community fall below the national average in areas such as education, food, clothing, health care and many more. The Kroc Center presents opportunities in a state-of-the-art facility to foster wellness, recreation, the arts, education, and spiritual growth.
Community need/impact
This community alls below the national average in education. This opportunity will provide the community with acces to computers they would normally not have in thier home. As well as help with understanding how to work the computer and explore the endless possibilities of the internet.
