500 computers donated to Africa

THOUSANDS of students in Africa will be given IT training thanks to the donation of computers by Irish companies.

The Irish educational charity Camara has just received a donation of 500 computers from PwC Ireland.

Camara collects redundant computers from organisations, refurbishes them and reuses them in educational institutes at home and abroad. The charity has now received more than 1,500 computers from PwC. These are being used primarily in learning centres in sub-Saharan Africa.
