Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. <strong>I'm really grateful!</strong></p> <p>Working in IT &amp; Technology over the last decade, and having spent millions on IT equipment on behalf of the companies I work for, it made me realise how much we throw away not only as a society, but with technology in particular. Old laptops, old computers, things we deem 'out of date' <em>etc</em></p> <p>The juxtaposition of this in comparison to schools in Africa, who struggle to expose their communities to technology even at it's most basic level, means education and information we take for granted, simply can't happen over there.</p> <p>There's a number of good charities doing some great work, but I personally think its really important to give children in paticular, an opportunity to be exposed to technology, in particular the Internet, to help raise education and to help nourish Africa in another way.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
