Donate and Support our Work
As a small independent charity, Cambridge Online needs cash and equipment donations to continue supporting digitally excluded people. We rely on a team of volunteers to make our resources go as far as they can, but our annual running costs exceeds the grant we receive from Cambridge City Council.
We rely on raising funds through business sponsorship, fees, grants, and personal donations.
We also need equipment donations to pass on to our beneficiaries.
Thank you to everyone who supports us.
Help Us Meet the Increasing Demand
The need for digital skills and online access has never been so great.
To help us reach more people, we have launched a campaign to raise
£10,000 to meet the growing demand for digital skills training.
With your support, we can empower more people to navigate
the digital world confidently.
Donate now and be a part of this transformative journey!

Equipment Donations
You can help our work by donating computer laptops, tablets, and mobile phones. All equipment should be in working order and have the appropriate power supply. Please include pins with any tablets/phones, else we probably cannot reuse them.
See the below chart for what equipment we can use & how.
We will be clean, data-wiped, test, and redistributed to people and organisations in need, including schools, adults, children, and young people. If you are a business and want certified destruction of data, we can signpost to our partners Sustainable Tech 4 Good who work alongside us and other charities across the nation.
