The Pittsburgh Steelers announced today an additional $30,000 in contributions to local charities that support closing the "digital divide" as part of the NFL's social justice initiative, Inspire Change.
The Steelers have selected five local nonprofit organizations that address the longstanding barrier to internet and technology access among economic groups, and particularly in underserved communities, to be recipients of this grant.
Contributions were made to 21 organizations in Pittsburgh and several in players' hometowns that focus on youth development, food access, criminal justice, community and police relations, equity and inclusion education, housing, domestic violence and survivor support groups, and military veterans.
