The Heart Tech Appeal with Croft
Powering Home-schooling with Stress-free Connectivity
As a local Hertford-based telecoms company, we’re passionate about keeping the Hertfordshire community connected.
Throughout February / March 2021, as part of our Croft in the Community initiative, we’ve teamed up with Heart Radio to help combat digital poverty and enable better access to an online education for children across Hertfordshire.
Why?
Ongoing COVID-19 lockdown measures and school closures have meant that children up and down the country are struggling to gain access to sufficient virtual education.
Only 51% of households earning between £6,000 – £10,000 have access to home broadband and many are not equipped with the necessary technology to effectively learn from home.
We’ve teamed up with Heart Radio to change this.
How?
Kids should have the tools they need to get an education and you can help make that happen!
We’re asking businesses across the county to donate any working, surplus laptops, desktops or tablets to Heart Radio.
Once they’ve received your old equipment, it will be donated to families across Hertfordshire who are in need of some extra help.
No laptops, desktops or tablets? We can also turn any unwanted mobile phones into cash donations.
Free mobile broadband, gifted by Croft!
Croft have already pledged to supply free mobile broadband to up to 100 families for the remainder of the school year, ensuring that children are getting the best possible education at home.
Is your household in need of a home-schooling connectivity boost?
As part of our Heart Tech Appeal, any surplus business laptops, desktops or tablets will be collected and distributed to the families who need it most.
If you need help powering your child’s home-schooling, text CROFT to 82122 (charged at your standard network rate).
Donate your old technology
To pledge any tech that your business no longer needs, head to the Heart website to fill out the online form and the team of Heart Angels will call you to arrange a time for collection.
