Connect Humanity Information

Connect Humanity is a nonprofit impact fund with a mission to advance digital opportunity. We provide tailored investments, grants, and technical guidance to help underserved communities build the internet infrastructure needed to thrive. Since forming in 2021, we have partnered with 90 communities across 20 US states to develop digital access plans and catalyze +$45 million in community broadband investments. These efforts put 160,000 people on the path to fast, affordable internet connectivity. 100% of Connect Humanity's investments have focused on low-income, rural, and/or BIPOC communities, with 75% going to minority- or women-led ISPs.
