Internet for Good: Connecting families in need

Having access to reliable internet is increasingly important in today’s interconnected world. But for less fortunate families, it can still be a struggle. 42% of low-income homes don’t have internet.

Internet for Good is an innovative partnership with Canadian internet service providers and the British Columbia Ministry of Social Development and Poverty Reduction, and the Ministry of Community and Social Services in Alberta that provides eligible families with the tools and connectivity they need to succeed.

Program highlights:

- Internet plans starting at just $9.95 per month (plus applicable taxes) for two years. No installation fee. 

- Speeds of up to 25 megabits per second (where available) and unlimited data per month
