For Sharon Chambers, the computer given to her will enable the flexibility and privacy she needs. “I’m just here to pick up a computer because mine died,” said Chambers, 74. “I need to print stuff, and I don’t have one anymore.” While Chambers says a lot of the work she needs to do can be done on her phone, having a desktop computer is important because of the access it offers. … Chambers was one of 176 residents given a computer Wednesday through the city of Topeka’s TSC-Get Digital program, which strives to increase digital equity in the capital city. This program was enabled by a $250,000 grant the city received from the Kansas Digital Equity and Inclusion Collaborative last year.
