COMPUTERS FOR AFRICAN SCHOOLS
This charity is no longer on the register, removed on 16 May 2012. A removal is usually a charity that wound up, merged, or fell below the income threshold, and is not in itself a finding against anyone — but an appeal still quoting this number today is quoting a charity the Commission no longer registers.

What it does
CFAS arrange for redundant but usable computers, refurbished by volunteers or prisoners in the UK, to be placed in mainly state secondary schools in Africa. Our African sister organisations administer the schemes locally, receive and prepare the computers, audit use, offer technical support, teach IT to the recipient school teaching staff, and responsibly recycle the computers at end of life.
In the charity's own words, as filed with the Commission.
