In FYE June 30, 2023, WCE distributed 1,129 computers to 28 schools in 7 developing countries. Over 200 volunteers in our five chapters refurbished the computers, loaded the hard drives with educational programs, and prepared them for shipping. The schools receiving the equipment estimate that the equipment will serve 15,975 students annually. WCE works with 11 field associates in 10 developing countries on a fee basis. They will develop WCE chapters in those countries, utilizing the WCE process to collect, refurbish, load, and distribute computers to local community schools and other organizations serving youth. They will also help our partners maintain their computers and provide technical assistance. We also continue to seek support for our Inspire Girls initiative to develop resources for our partner schools to encourage girls to stay in school and pursue careers in technology.
