Teacher in a Box

Technology permeates our world. It can be overwhelming at times, especially with the internet and social media nowadays bombarding us with information every time we jump on a computer. However, one of the major benefits of having access to so much information is the role it has played in educating our children. Many of us grew up in a time where access to learning was only through institutions like school and university, and not all of us had the opportunity to pursue further learning.

Nowadays, a child can get instant access to encyclopedias and learning curriculum at the touch of a button. Especially at a young age, when their learning capabilities move at lightning speed, it can set them up for a far more fulfilling future; one where they can follow their dreams and develop their curiosity in the world around them. It is an advantage we can leave the next generation.

However, not all of the world's children have caught up to this amazing world of wonder. Some developing countries still do not have access to the internet and various technologies we take for granted in the western world. Rural areas, in particular, often lack the necessary infrastructure to facilitate a learning environment. Organizations like Teacher in a Box are working tirelessly to provide educational resources to children in rural areas.

Teacher in a Box has compiled and created a huge interactive portfolio of learning resources for kids who don’t have access to the internet. They are now delivering these resources to rural communities in developing countries who don’t enjoy the educational services most of us take for granted. To achieve their mission of providing educational resources to children in rural areas, Teacher in a Box is in need of working laptops, desktop computers, and tablets.

At King IT, we are passionate about education and technology. Our services aren't just about selling and repairing electronic equipment. We strive to educate our customers about technology, teach them how to make the best use of it, and help them enjoy a 'tech-savvy' lifestyle. That is why we are proud to be working with an inspirational organization like Teacher in a Box to get working laptops, computers, and tablets to children in need.

If you have a working laptop, computer, or tablet that you aren't using anymore, we would greatly appreciate it if you could drop it off at a King IT store near you. Join us in supporting this important cause by donating your unused laptops, computers, or tablets at a King IT store near you today.
