A non-profit organisation, Digi-Bridge provides students with access to hands-on, technology-based (STEAM) science, technology, engineering, arts, and math experiences, ensuring they are well-equipped with the skills to succeed in a rapidly evolving world.

The partnership kicked off with ELGi鈥檚 employees undertaking a group activity to disassemble and organise LEGO robotic kits for the students.
"We鈥檙e excited to join forces with ELGi, an engineering-driven company that shares our values and vision for a future where all children have equal access to educational opportunities,鈥� said Piper Barnes, Development Director at Digi-Bridge. 鈥淭ogether, we look forward to expanding our efforts and impacting more children.鈥�
鈥淎t ELGi, we believe in fostering development and growth via special focus community outreach programs that engender a transformative effect on those that truly need it.

Launched in 2014, Digi-Bridge has provided technology-based, hands-on STEAM experiences to more than 17,000 students. The organisation accomplishes this through STEAM and robotic programming with various schools and community partners.
