Project e-Quality was organized as an energized coalition representing business, education and healthcare that united to fight the "Digital Divide." Its aim was to encourage the rapid deployment and use of affordable high-speed telecommunications technologies throughout Pennsylvania. The Project e-Quality coalition galvanized around the guiding principle that any legislation regarding Chapter 30 should create jobs, keep Pennsylvanians healthy and better educate our children.

 

The new Pennsylvania Chapter 30 was passed late November 2004. One of the outcomes of this legislation was the creation of the Pennsylvania e-Fund, which provides funding to be used to establish and improve high-speed education networks connecting the Commonwealth's K-12 schools across the state over five years. Project e-Quality is pleased to announce the first e-Fund awards have been made, totaling $10 million for 282 educational entities from 43 counties across the commonwealth.
