"Social Inclusion Through Technology"

More than 30 years after IBM introduced the Personal Computer, 1,500,000 Australian households (17%) still lack access to computers and the internet.  Almost all of those households earn less than $40,000/year, and while many see the social and economic benefits of getting connected, the cost of technology and access to training is a significant barrier.  We strive to overcome the inequities caused by a lack of access.

WorkVentures helps these households connect through projects including:

  • Connect IT - Australia's largest not-for-profit computer refurbishment program
  • iGetIT! - Computer training for indigenous youth running in the Northern Territory
  • i.settle.with.IT! - Computer training for migrants & refugees
  • Our Connect Centre at Airds in the Campbelltown area
