Google has pledged to give $250,000 to teach underprivileged communities how to interact with technology through it's iGotITtoo (I've got information technology, too) program.
Volunteers will teach two or three classes per week to those wishing to participate in the program.
Google believes that increasing knowledge in technology will improve quality of life, due to new access of services.
