What is the goal of the Dwights Computers for kids program?
Total elimination of the digital divide. By developing a program that will incorporate helping existing charitable and non-profit orginazations throughout the country, initiating new ones where there are none, and tying them all together with help from national businesses, and help from sports and other personalities including endorsements from them and other prominent individuals. The blueprint is now 85% completed. Look, in our country we are currently disposing of more than 130,000,000 outdated computers a year. It is estimated that between 15% and 25% are useable at the time and more of them are salvageable. If we continue to dump the majority of them, the enviromental impact, ( lead alone, about 4 lbs each) will be far more costly than a cooperative effort to make Dwight’s Computers for Kids program to eliminate the digital divide, successful.
