Re-cycled Computers Reach School Children in Cameroon
GIFT is delighted to support the The NAVTI Foundation’s Computers For African Schools project which involves procuring unwanted, second hand computers from businesses in Hong Kong for use in Cameroon’s schools. The first shipment of 250 refurbished computers procured from Caritas HK was successfully delivered to Cameroon in June 2008. GIFT sponsored the shipping, customs clearance and distribution costs for this shipment.
The Computers For African Schools project involves the recycling of “e-waste” as educational tools for underprivileged children and is expected to positively impact the lives of over 100,000 people in Cameroon. The project is designed to run as a self sustaining social enterprise. Accordingly, NAVTI will charge recipient schools a minimal handling fee for the computers. This fee will be used to fund subsequent shipments of computers to Cameroon.
The NAVTI Foundation is a charity based in Kumbo town, Cameroon with a presence in Hong Kong. NAVTI is headed by Jean Louis Shudzeka, who is an Alumni member of GIFT’s Global Young Leaders Programme.
For more information on the Computers For African Schools project please contact Amanda Chiu at or (852) 3571 8134.
We thank the initiators of the project.our people surely
need to be taught all that it takes to succeed now.

This is a lofty idea. We are in the computer age but it is sad that must of our children especially in rural areas have little or no knowledge of the computer. Hence, an initiative of this standard is highly appreciated. Thanks.

There’s no other way of showing concern to an abandoned part of the country.Only through literacy can they design methods towards human progress and lesser deprivation.
