Long before the term "digital divide" became ubiquitous,
CAP volunteers were working to bring the life-changing power of technology
to all the people of Cleveland and beyond.

CAP is all about Digital Inclusion

We never said it's the Taj Mahal

Visitors are often surprised at how busy the CAP Resource Center is. Lots of PCs, parts, tools, components, monitors, etc. It may not make the Office Beautiful magazines but it works for our volunteers.

Let us know if you want to visit.

Dan Davenport and Ken Eskridge

With great sadness we have to report that CAP has lost two of our most dedicated volunteers who have been with us from the start. Dan Davenport and Ken Eskridge were born within a week of each other in August 1926 and passed away one week apart 92 years later in early 2019. They were the heart and soul of CAP and are greatly missed.

We are sure they are involved in many projects helping people in heaven. RIP Dan and Kenny.
