Welcome to CS2

Who we are:

Computer Science Community Service (CS2 for short) is a student-run, volunteer organization dedicated to teaching computer skills in the community, often focusing on bridging the ever-widening digital divide.

CS2 provides a great opportunity for computer science students to use their knowledge obtained in the classroom and from outside work experience to improve their local communities. The organization does everything from building and administering computer labs for youth and technology centers to creating computer clubs in local elementary schools to teach children computer skills. The members are dedicated to the cause of bettering their surrounding, and because of this, CS2 continues to grow each semester.

The organization receives its funding primarily from the generous donations of the CSRC (Computer Science Resources Consortium) and any computer hardware used in remote sites is either donated or purchased using these funds. Members do not pay any dues to join and there are no traditional fundraisers to raise money. Instead, CS2 aggressively pursues grants and donations from companies, other organizations, and the university to fund its cause. Without such donations, CS2 would cease to do the great things that it has done in the past!
