HUBZone stands for Historically Underutilized Business Zone and is a Small Business Administration (SBA) program created to help promote economic growth in various HUBZone sections of communities throughout the US. These “HUBZone” areas have largely been ignored when it comes to assistance that could generate growth including business support and help schools across the community acquire the tools to better educate students.

HUBZone Technology Initiative (HTI) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization helping to bring technology resources to those in need within HUBZone communities nationwide. HTI is starting its mission of providing technology resources to HUBZone communities by donating functionable laptops and converting them into Google Chromebooks. Our focus is to get these Chromebooks into the hands of those within HUBZones that have a strong desire at self-improvement whether they are students, those that are looking for employment or those that want to improve their employment. Our goal is to strengthen the workforce by providing more skilled labor therefore reducing unemployment rates in HUBZone areas.
