TESTIMONIALS
Mujtaba Rahimi, and his two brothers, Murtaza and Mustafa, recently arrived in Western MA to join their mother, who had immigrated here from Afghanistan in 2021. With big goals ahead, including strengthening their English skills, enrolling in high school and pursuing nursing and business careers, the three young men needed tech skills – and computers – to pursue their dreams. The Tech Hub provided that support, with Mujtaba, Murtaz and Mustafa taking multiple tech classes and earning computers which will support their continued growth in, and contributions to, our region.

“My time as a digital fellow at Tech Hub has been a life changing experience. Accepting the digital fellowship at Tech Hub was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I never thought I would be put in a position where I could positively impact lives and affect change. I am super proud of the work I have done in the last 6 months, and I plan on continuing that work in one form or another once my fellowship ends.” “Since joining Tech Foundry, I have been impressed by the quality of education and the supportive environment. The hands-on experience and real-world applications of the curriculum have been instrumental in preparing me for the challenges ahead. Currently being at the Tech Hub allows me to pay it forward by sharing my knowledge with the community and helping them help themselves through continued learning and upskilling their basic digital foundations.”
