Starting school: Equal opportunities require equal equipment
When school starts again in Austria in September, many children look forward to new notebooks, pens, and other materials. However, for families affected by poverty, this new beginning is often a huge burden: The necessary school supplies cost money that isn't available in the household budget. For children in particular, this means starting under unequal conditions – even though school should be open to everyone.
PCs für alle would like to support this. We collect not only computers, laptops, and IT equipment, but also office supplies, which we distribute free of charge to children and schools. Because digital participation begins with a functioning PC—but also with a pen, a pad, and the little things essential for successful learning.
Recently has Director Wagner of the Schönngasse special school at the club PCs für alle picked up various office supplies. In the accompanying video, he talks about the importance of such support for his students – and how important it is that no child is left behind in their learning.
With your help, we can continue to provide children and schools with materials that make a crucial difference in their everyday lives.
