PROJECT PARTNERS AND SUPPORTERS – SNAPSHOT
- Over the last 6 years more than 450 PC’s/Laptops have been refurbished with Microsoft Windows and Office compatable software installed, and distributed to Queens Fund Applicants
- From Lucy O’Sullivan – President Queens Fund- July 2023
” I really wanted to thank you so very, very much for your continued support. You have helped out so many times, and so many women and children now have access to education, medical support, social connections, life administration, all due to your provision of affordable computers.
Being able to access everything is something we might take for granted, but without a computer, children cannot do their schoolwork, bills can’t be paid efficiently, social services can’t be accessed – you really do provide a life-changing service, and your partnership with us is without doubt, one of our most valuable resources.”
