IT School Kids

Since the beginning of the War, thousands of families in Ukraine have been forced to leave their homes and move to safer regions of the country taking only the bare minimum of necessities with them. As the new school year begins, much of the education is offered solely online due the active phase of the War, leaving children the only option of continuing their studies through technologies connecting them to their lessons. Through time and time again, we see that families are in no position to return for their technical equipment due to the destruction of homes and infrastructure. Occupied areas are heavily damaged and are lacking equipment, due to looting activities of the russian soldiers. As of today, 130 thousand school students are in need of devices that would give them access to education.

Laptops and tablets needed, new or used (made after 2015), in working condition and complete with power supply.

If an OS is already installed on a device, it can be left there and will be put to use, it also can be uninstalled if the license policy demands so. When there is no OS, ChromeOS Flex will be installed, fully meeting the requirements for distance learning.

The above-mentioned devices can be passed on to IT Ukraine partners in Europe and the UK. To obtain the address and other details of the equipment transfer, please contact the project managers.

The computer equipment will be transferred to Ukrainian schools in accordance with requests from partners working directly with educational institutions.

The devices will be delivered through partner organizations and logistics partners in Europe and Ukraine. The technical condition of the equipment will be checked upon delivery to Ukraine and distributed to the final recipients.

At the numerous requests of educational institutions and internally displaced persons, the Ministry of Temporarily Occupied Territories and Internally Displaced Persons of Ukraine together with IT Ukraine Association have launched an initiative to support those affected by the war. The government agency and our partners are primarily responsible for distributing the collected devices to schools and students.

Reports on the transported devices will be published on the IT Ukraine website upon achievement of the project goals, as well as can be additionally sent upon request.

Promotion of the project is an essential component in the equipment accumulation process. For this reason, each donation will be covered on the Association’s social media pages upon agreement of the donators and involved entities or they can stay incognito if they wish so, then only the information about the donation and the receiver will be shared.
