All children in this digital age should have the opportunity to educate themselves more swiftly and effectively than ever before, with access to the basic hardware and software requirements. Giving Whilst Living (GWL) attempts to bridge the gap that exists by donating pre-owned computers, tablets and phones to underprivileged students. We hope that in time they will also adopt the values of altruism, generosity and sustainability, nurturing a spirit of giving back to the community and environmental conservation.

I have made it my mission to help less fortunate children and families with their education needs, through an environmentally-friendly initiative of donating upgraded pre-owned electronic devices to those in need. GWL ambassadors and I work closely with Rotary Clubs in various countries to collect secondhand laptops, desktops, and mobile phones (less than 7-8 years old) from individuals and multinationals all over Asia.
With the help of IT technicians in Australia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Malaysia Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam these devices are cleaned, upgraded and software is installed. They are personally delivered to the recipients (mainly schools and homes for underprivileged children), providing a meaningful and gratifying experience for all those involved.
I am a member of Rotary Club of Kowloon Golden Mile, Hong Kong. We tie up with Rotary clubs in each country who play a vital role in making this all happen. A designated Rotary club in each country is the official vehicle for receiving donations and they are also involved in finding recipients, vetting them and delivering along with our GWL Ambassador.
GWL is an environmentally friendly project. Laptops, mobile phones and computers which would otherwise have been discarded, adding to e-waste which is a health and environmental hazard, are recycled and upgraded. This initiative benefits the less privileged in our society who cannot afford to purchase these items. It ties in with the ESG and CSR efforts of multinationals that are committed to contributing to a more sustainable future
