Sierra Communications helping out Lindsay’s Africa Project

Sierra Communications helping out Lindsay’s Africa Project ICT program once again

While carrying out our computers for schools program, we of course have a waste issue that must be dealt with.

Last week we started clearing out Hilary’s PCs for Africa stores in Rathoath, where for the past 7 years computers have been stored and prepared for shipping to Africa. This process is now carried out with Camara Education @ The Digital Hub in Dublin, and so with the help of volunteers Richard and Andrew, we have been clearing all the machines left in Rathoath, including all the broken, irreparable computer equipment. Camara Education is helping us to correctly dispose and recycle this equipment.

We’d like to thank Camara’s continued help in our joint goal of providing ICT to Sub-Saharan Africa, and also Sierra Communications who having sponsored our work last year, this time provided a vehicle to assist in transporting the equipment for recycling.

We will be continuing to do this work for the next few weeks as there is quite a lot of equipment in Hilary’s stables. Any help would be much appreciated.
