A few weeks ago, I announced my new collection of accessories for smartphones, tablets and laptops exclusively for Best Buy. I’m excited to share they have now arrived in stores!
So how did this partnership come to be? No one knows technology and the accessories you need for it like Best Buy, and I know how tricky it can be to find accessories that are both fashionable and functional. So it made sense for us to collaborate.
The goal was bridging the digital gap for families, but the theme was empowerment at Dorsey High School in Los Angeles on Sept. 19.
Several families, with help from Best Buy employees, were trained on basic computer skills and went home with something they didn’t have before – Internet connectivity and a computer.
Best Buy partnered with OurCycle LA, a City of Los Angeles digital inclusion pilot program geared at providing free refurbished computers and training to low-income families in Los Angeles.
Best Buy recently joined forces with two nonprofits in Washington, D.C., to help older adults connect with technology — often for the very first time — with teen mentors by their side.
The company, along with Cyber-Seniors and the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Washington, brought together 30 teens and 23 seniors at the Best Buy Teen Tech Center. The event included a reception and demonstrations led by Best Buy and Geek Squad trainers. Several other employees from area stores volunteered to help out, too, as the event happened during the Best Buy Week of Service.

We are the technology experts who can help you set up your technology and the one-stop shop you can turn to when something goes wrong.
School might be out for summer, but that doesn’t mean kids can’t keep learning while having fun.
Today is National Summer Learning Day – a reminder for adults and students how important it is to discover, stay safe and remain active even when school is not in session. According to the National Summer Learning Association, students typically score lower on standardized tests at the end of vacation than they do on the same tests at the start of summer.
With more e-books now available, tablets and e-readers are a great way to keep kids busy learning all summer long.
If learning robotics, making music and writing code sound more fun than swatting mosquitoes and singing around a fire, the camps offered by Geek Squad Academy (GSA) are where to be this summer.
No sleeping bags are required at Best Buy’s GSA camps, but students do need to pack curiosity and creativity. With hands-on access to computers, tablets, and other techy gadgets, they’re joining the more than 20,000 past attendees in learning new skills, gaining confidence and getting a head start on their futures.
Best Buy was among the contributors named by the White House yesterday committing to a $240 million effort to prepare students to excel in the fields of science and technology.
Best Buy is teaming up with FIRST, a youth science and technology education nonprofit, to help low-income teens around the United States compete in robotics competitions. The Best Buy Foundation is providing financial support to some 20 VISTA members who will teach robotics to teens at up to 10 locations, including Best Buy Teen Tech Centers.
