Computer Aid International exists because thousands of people share a vision of a world where rich and poor people have equal access to the benefits of Information Technology. Hopefully by now you will have read about how our supporters are making this change happen. If you share this vision then this section of the website highlights some of the ways that you, your group of friends and the company you work for can make a big difference to the lives of disadvantaged people in the developing world.

We all have the power to change lives

The creation of a Just Giving web page allowed Tracy to raise sponsorship from family, friends and local companies of over £1, 2000. Tracey's fundraising didn't end with the last mile cycled and she continues to fundraise towards a target of £1,600.

Ric and Charlie, two friends from Shepherds Bush in London, have just embarked on an epic drive from London to Cape Town in South Africa with the help of Monty the Land Rover! The journey is expected to take the best part of 9 months and Ric and Charlie will stop off and visit Computer Aid projects and beneficiaries along the way. This intrepid pair of adventurers had already raised in excess of £1,000 before they set off and they will continue fundraising as they continue along their route.

These examples show that Computer Aid has been able to harness the fundraising power of the individual, and hopefully these stories will inspire other supporters to realise each and every one of us has the power to change lives.

If you've got an idea in mind that can be used to raise money, get in touch with Maurizio Borgatti maurizio@computeraid.org and we'll help you make your event a fundraising success!
