Keep Kids Connected
Keep Kids Connected (KKC) – part of registered charity Dons Local Action Group (DLAG) – is a small team of techie volunteers who share the belief that technology can enable brighter futures. We formed in April 2020 in response to lockdown and the demand for laptops for children to engage in remote learning. Since this time, we have delivered over 3,300 donated laptops, but there is still a large number of families and individuals without access to technology.
Who we help
We operate out of the three London boroughs – Merton, Kingston and Wandsworth. Within these boroughs we support disadvantaged children, families who are undergoing hardship, special needs pupils, recently arrived refugees and those we feel would benefit from technology to further their future prospects.
To ensure our devices go to those most deserving, we work closely to meet referral requests from local schools and councils’ children’s services teams, as well as local charities and support groups.
Just a few examples of our support include:
- Chromebook laptops for primary school children.
- iPads to help blind and wheelchair-bound children.
- Specialist Macbook Pro devices to help film studies students who are studying A- levels and going onto university.
