Thank you for joining us for the first part of the East Coast Digital Learning Day this morning. If you missed it, you can watch the replay of the live session on the Heartbeat@Bedok FB Page or in our previous post. Now, on to the next exciting part of today’s programme

Launched on Saturday (June 19), the East Coast Digital Blueprint aims to broaden access to equipment like computers, improve the digital literacy of seniors and help heartland businesses expand their online presence.

By partnering with industry and community self-help groups, IMDA provided them with subsidised PCs, and options for free fibre and mobile broadband. Other NGOs and civil society organisations such as Engineering Good, SG Bono and ReadAble also donated and refurbished laptops for these families to enhance their digital connectivity.

Home Based Learning has finally come to an end. What worked? What didn’t? Diana Ser tracked three families across a span of nearly four weeks, to find out if our kids can really learn from home.

Tzu Chi Singapore has partnered with several organisations to launch a fundraising campaign to provide laptops and Chromebooks for students from low income families and upgrade their wifi so that they can study without disruption at home.

When schools shut down in Singapore in April, it immediately created a problem with some low-income households which were short on laptops. Dennis Too, our regional IT administrator, wanted to help. He started an initiative to donate our unused laptops to these families in need, through a non-profit organization SGBono (Singapore Pro Bono Volunteers).

随着政府加强病毒阻断措施，把回收电脑改装后免费送给有需学生的非盈利组织SG Bono也得暂停工作，会在今天期限内把其余的电脑送到学生手中。

Sgbono: Started by a group of engineers, IT experts and enthusiasts, Sgbono focuses on providing IT support through free repairs, donated hardware or software, and providing assistance for grant application. Any computer, smartphone, network equipment, printers and peripherals in working condition are accepted.

“Whatever happens, education is still important.” Ground-up groups in Singapore are calling out for laptop donations so that students can carry out home-based learning at home.

SGBono (Singapore Pro Bono Volunteers) is a volunteer group in Singapore that aims to help this overlooked group of people. With SG schools turning to home-based learning, they are giving out computers and tablets to low income families* who need them – completely FOC.

Singapore volunteer group SGBono is offering free computing devices in the form of laptops and iPads to low-income families.
