The children are still trying to catch up on lost time from school, and one way of doing this is additional online time.

Unfortunately the number of children to a PC/laptop in each orphanage is making it difficult for them to do this.

We are going to purchase an additional laptop for each orphanage to try and ease the strain.

Please help us by donating to our fundraising page ...

Is there no way that anyone on here could donate equipment that they no longer require?

How much are the laptops? could you make a quick go fund me page for them specifically? I'm sure you'd get to your target quite quickly.

Get Bruce to clear out his garage and auction what ever stuff he has, pretty sure that would raise some funds quickly. When I donated a signed shirt and ball which was probably two years ago now he mentioned he has other stuff too when I enquired as to when he would use it. Pretty sure unless I missed it he still has it. I will also pop to your page and donate £100, I had a bet on here in a discussion with Paul Smith about fans returning to stadiums and said I would donate £100 to dinipro if I lost, I haven’t lost the bet yet but have donated the cash anyway.👍

The Just Giving page in the link is specifically for the laptops.

We are purchasing 6 laptops at £180 each, with a £1,000 target on the donation page.

I do, Keith. We’ve struggled to set up an event at which to hold an auction, so I still have ball, boots and several shirts including one or two framed ones.

Bump! After a pretty dire second half vs the Dons, why not cheer yourself up by supporting an excellent cause?!
