About San José Public Library Foundation

The San José Public Library Foundation supports educational programs and resources through the public library, schools, and community-based organizations, to create an educated, equitable, empowered and engaged community.

Our partnership and impact

Zoom’s support to the San José Public Library Foundation contributed to the San José Digital Inclusion Fund, a multi-million dollar cross-sector effort to close the digital divide, making it the first city in the country to make such a pledge. This effort was the city’s largest philanthropic effort in recent history.

Through the funding, over 40 organizations have received funds to contribute to the three pillars of work:

  • Providing internet connectivity to San José residents

  • Enhancing digital skills to access jobs, educational opportunities and critical services

  • Ensuring every San José resident has a working device
