Computers 4 Africa are appealing to the local community to help meet a shortage of second-hand IT equipment.

We need you, your school, business, council, family or charity to help us bridge this shortfall.

We are looking for working TFT monitors (flat screen), mice, kettle and VGA leads to enable us to complete our next three shipments, which are due to leave imminently (to Cameroon, Tanzania and Kenya respectively).

Even one flat screen will make a difference as 100% of useable donations are sent to Africa where it is used to bring increased opportunities and transform lives.

If you can help, please call 03000 11 22 33 or email contact-us@computers4africa.org.uk. Alternatively you can turn up at their head offices with your items, address: 4, Priory Park, Mills Road, Aylesford, Kent, ME20 7PP.
