Computer Aid

Our Digital Schools are a huge part of what we do at Computer Aid, and nothing makes us prouder than seeing the communities we work in experiencing the technology and the digital world. The passing on of knowledge is vital in reducing the digital divide for generations to come 💛

Only 9.1% of households in Sub-Saharan Africa have a computer. In rural areas and among women, digital access drops even further. That’s why we provide refurbished IT and digital skills training to schools, NGOs, and communities across 110+ countries. #DigitalInclusion #CAI

Our devices come from a range of organisations, but the standard never varies. Each one meets minimum specs (i3-i7, 8GB RAM, SSD/HDD), is fully tested, refurbished, and GDPR data-wiped. If it can’t be reused, it’s responsibly recycled, never sent to landfill. #ComputerAid #FAQ
