Subject:  Urgent - Help us get Ed Technology into the Next Stimulus Package



Hi There!

We need your immediate help to get distance learning technology into the
next COVID-19 government relief package. We desperately need to collect
data on the educational need for hotspots, home connectivity and 1:1
devices.

Here are two quick-and-easy ways to help:

   1.

   Please fill out this quick survey for your school or district.

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/digitalwishstimulus

   1.

   Circulate this email to every educator in neighboring districts, and ask
   them to take the survey.


Results will be posted at Digital Wish
<http://www.digitalwish.com/dw/digitalwish/covid_stimulus>as soon as they
become available.

We have to show the need for education technology or it will not be funded.
Congress is already working on a fourth COVID-19 relief bill and we need to
convince them to fund education technology so that all students can get
connected online to continue learning this spring.

Decisions are happening fast. We only have a few days to collect this
information.


Stay home, stay safe...and please help us help you!

Thanks in advance,

Digital Wish
