Advancements in emerging technologies like AI challenge us to rethink how we connect individuals with the benefits they're eligible for to obtain economic growth. ??That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve been selected as one of 14 organizations to receive a grant from the GitLab Foundation AI for Economic Opportunity Fund as part of its second round of funding! We can’t wait to share how this grant will accelerate our work to leverage AI to reduce nonacademic barriers faced by adult learners -- increasing education outcomes, employment prospects, & long-term economic mobility, and we’re proud to be part of this movement to create lasting economic impact.

关于我们
BestFit is on a mission to remove non-academic barriers for students at risk of dropping out because they cannot afford to meet their basic needs like, tech, housing, and food. We provide technology to colleges & nonprofits looking to address basic needs insecurity on campus and in their communities, and we work with mission-driven companies looking to create sustainable, scalable social impact. We empower students to build their own support systems by connecting them to on-campus, community, philanthropic, and corporate resources. In 2021 alone, we connected Georgia college students to over $100,000 in tech resources and helped students determine their eligibility for ~$500,000 in benefits and social services. The team's nationally-recognized work is funded by organizations like Google, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation , Cox Enterprises Social Impact Accelerator powered by Techstars, and the Community Foundation of Greater Atlanta.
