REMOVING FINANCIAL BARRIERS

Repurposing laptops to help students achieve more

34% of disengaged students in Victoria attribute their disengagement to barriers resulting from financial distress. By collaborating with us, you can play a pivotal role in levelling the educational playing field, reducing electronic waste, and bolstering your reputation as an active participant in our initiative.
