About TechCycle Tech4ALL ProjectProblem Statement:It is shocking that even in the digital and internet dependent era we live in, there are still millions of people deprived from computer access. We strongly believe that computers have the power to educate, change lives, and allow individuals to reach their full potential. This is especially true for the eager youth that suffer needlessly from lack of education and digital exposure.

Computer literacy is the language of today and a primary job requirement of companies, corporations, and academic institutions. Without access to computer technology many people will fall further and further behind and never be able to move forward with modern society.

Aims of TechCycle Tech4All• To provide a sustainable alternative to digital

waste.• To narrow digital divide by distributing free

computers to underprivileged communities.• To eliminate computer illiteracy by delivering

free basic computer skills workshop to underprivileged communities.
