Have you got the odd Thumb / Flash Drive laying around doing nothing?

You can now pass it on to someone who needs one!Thumbs Up! Thumb Drive and Flash Drive Recycling with a Purpose!

Increasingly families who do it tough have problems dipping into their pockets when it comes to affording all the necessities that kids need these days for school. This year we have had a huge jump in families asking if we can provide them with flash drives as these have become the new essential on school childrens stationary lists.

The prices have dropped, allowing people to pick these up as almost a semi-disposable item, but for many families an extra $20-$30 per child is a strain at the beginning of and school term. You can ease the pressure and do something great with your flash drives you don’t use any more and pass them on to children who now need them most!

If you would like to help, all you need to do is place your old drives into an envelope and send them to:

Thumbs Up!
CLiCK
PO Box 168
Rockingham, 6168
Western Australia

Your small donation can make the difference for our next generation!

For more information feel free to contact CLiCK!

Well this week we kicked off our Everlasting Computers initiative through CLiCK and so far we have received some great feedback! Everlasting Computers is our new guarantee that if clients pc’s break down, and their social or economic circumstances have not changed, then we fix them free of charge.

First PC Rolls in for CLiCK’s Everlasting Computers!

So far we have had a few machines in which have had a few minor problems, but nothing major which is a great start to get the ball rolling! We have received  emails supporting the new initiative from all members of the community and we thank you for your kind words!

CLiCK is proud to announce a new service which will ensure that computers that CLiCK distribute stay sustainable for its clients. CLiCK’s new Everlasting Computers provides a safety net for people who receive computers for free from CLiCK, by providing a life-time free service on all computer systems if they break down.

“There is a difficult gap for people in need when they receive a free computer and the possibility of having to repair a free computer for many of our clients” CLiCK Director Matt Vapor stated. “Giving away computers for free is a great initiative, how ever organisations which do this need to be responsible for the product which they give away, organisations such as CLiCK need to realise that they are dealing with used systems and unfortunately their failure rate can be extremely high”.

“It is negligible for anyone to give away a computer to those in need and expecting them to pay to fix it if it breaks down if their financial or social situation has not changed”. “For the sake of equity and opportunity we have started Everlasting Computers so that each and every computer we give away to people in need are guaranteed that we will fix them for free for clients if their situation hasn’t changed”.
