Alex (age 11) and the WIN team collecting e-waste

Alex persuaded his school to start teaching students how to refurbish donated computers. These students were able to collect, restore, and distribute 260 computers to kids who needed them. Alex is especially proud of this part of his project. He was thanked on video by the mother of one of the students who got a free computer. “I couldn’t afford to buy a computer for my daughter, so she always had to go to the library to do her homework. Now, thanks to Alex and his group, she can do her homework at home.”
