The premier, non-profit provider of refurbished computers to BC schools and communities

Welcome to CFS

Computers for Schools BC provides quality refurbished computer equipment to schools, libraries, Community Access (CAP) sites and learning focused not-for-profit organizations across our province.

Our goals:
  • To provide increased access for students and learners of all ages to computer technology.

  • To give youth interns valuable job skills in technical and hardware repair, team building and mentorship. We achieve this by partnering with community volunteers and high schools whose students complete their CAP placement with us.

  • To practise ethical recycling of computer waste and promote environmental sustainability through development and promotion of a proven, effective computer re-use model.

  • To provide satisfying and useful volunteer opportunities in the refurbishment process.

Computers for Schools BC is administered by British Columbia Technology for Learning Society and was incorporated in 1995.

Thank you for visiting our website! I hope you find it useful.

Executive Director
