PROJECT ILUMINA

iLumina is a rural resilience and digital inclusion campaign that brings resources to rural communities.

ABOUT PROJECT ILUMINA.

In order to help rural communities thrive we need organizations to meet business owners and individuals where they are: on their farms, at their stores, and in their libraries.

 

Together with our partners, NCW Tech Alliance will lift the Cascade curtain and skill our region for tomorrow's economy.
