FREE COMPUTERS FOR ISLAND YOUTHS…

In this day and age there should be no reason why a young person on the Island should not have access to a personal computer at home.

We are now in the tech age, computers play an important part in our life, from school homework, banking, shopping, research and even fun.

The Island Youth Project  has launched the “Island Computer Project”  to get  more computers in homes that don’t currently have one.

We fix PC’’s and refurbish computers from donated parts, they stay in the local community and help younger people with who really need one. The computer project is great for the environment, cuts down on the Eco-Island Carbon footprint and is a much better option than allowing them to go to landfill in other poorer 3rd world countries.

SUPPORT THE COMPUTER PROJECT

Do you have any old computers, parts or equipment and feel you could help the Island Youth Project?.  We will need support from other  Island residents and local businesses. We don’t want your money but we are on the lookout  for any parts you can donate. more details

APPLY FOR A FREE COMPUTER*

To apply for a free computer from the Island Youth Project you will need to be living on the Island and aged from 8 to 21 years old. We don’t supply PC’s to people who already have a computer in their household. Please use the comment box at the bottom of the form to let us know the reason why we should give you a free computer and what it will be used for..

*There is a £15 charge for delivery of a PC anywhere on the Island. We can also set the PC up for free if required. £5 of that charge goes to the delivery driver for petrol and all other money goes back into the Island Youth Project.
