Computers for Irish Schools needs more donations

Since we launched Computers for Irish Schools (CFIS) in January 2009, we have lots of schools registering to receive IT Equipment. We have been delighted with the amount of interest generated by schools and by companies wishing to donate equipment.

With more and more schools registering every day, we need more companies to sign up to enable us to meet the demand for IT Equipment.

If you have been putting off the decision to dispose of your old IT equipment due to the economic downturn, why not make a positive decision and donate them to schools in Ireland.
In the next 5 years, over 1 million working computers will be disposed of in Ireland. With a bit of TLC many computers sent for recycling can be refurbished to a high enough spec to enable them to be used again, especially for the type of applications used in primary and secondary schools

Extending the useful life of IT equipment being replaced by Irish companies and other organisations and placing more computers into classrooms, gives Irish students more opportunities to learn about computers and new technology, which will allow them to develop the skills needed to thrive in a knowledge-based economy.

For the same cost as recycling your old IT Equipment, CFIS will refurbish any computers and monitors that meet our specifications requirement and donate them to schools around Ireland with no cost to the schools.

To protect donors data and environmental responsibilities, all hard drives are securely wiped using U.S Department of Defence approved software and when the equipment is either obsolete or the schools no longer need it, CFIS will have it recycled in the normal way at no cost to the school

Not everything is about money and turnover - doing something that makes us and others feel good is something money can’t buy!
