MORGANTON, N.C. — Hundreds of families in Morganton received free educational touchpads Friday from ApSeed, a nonprofit based in Salisbury.
ApSeed distributed 350 custom-built pre-K educational touchpads at the Blue Ridge Community Action’s early child education center.
Parents expressed excitement about their children using the touchpads to access interactive educational apps to help prepare for kindergarten.
The initiative was made possible through a $60,000 grant from the Rostan Family Foundation in Valdese, highlighting the community’s support for early childhood education.
