Verified means we found it on the official register or the scheme’s own list on the date shown. Company says means it is stated on the company’s website and we haven’t checked it yet. Registers can lag behind, so “not found” or “no longer current” is not an accusation. What these mean.
About The ITSA Digital Trust
The ITSA Digital Trust, known until recently as IT Schools Africa, is a registered charity (no. 1146157) with an IT workshop and warehouse on Mead Road in Cheltenham. It takes donations of working desktops, laptops, monitors and accessories from businesses, schools, councils and individuals.
Each machine is barcoded and logged, drives are wiped with Global Erasure (YouWipe) software and certificates are available on request, and volunteers refurbish the equipment. Refurbished computers equip school IT labs in Malawi, Zambia, Kenya and Zimbabwe and support Gloucestershire charities and digital-inclusion projects.
