Hide AdJess tweeted: “Companies can donate unwanted computers to @laptopsforkids and help young people keep up with their homework. Too many children are falling behind because they cannot get online at home.”
The Laptops for Kids campaign is still seeking unused laptops, tablets, desktops and chargers.
Donors can securely erase devices themselves or the campaign can arrange for the certified secure erasure of devices with software donated by Blancco, a data security firm.
