Huble are 'Moving to Make' a difference across the globe. With help from friends, colleagues, clients and partners Huble will be continuously active for a whole week - raising funds for Close the Gap.

About Close the Gap

Close the Gap is an international social enterprise that aims to bridge the digital divide by offering high-quality, pre-owned computers donated by European and international companies to educational, medical, and social projects in developing and emerging countries.

Close the Gap collects decommissioned computers from companies and arranges for other organizations to clean the hard disks and then check and configure the hardware according to the requirements of its end-users. The computers are then shipped to the destination country by sea or air transport, to support educational, medical, entrepreneurial, and social projects. All the projects are demand-driven and impact-oriented initiatives.

Impact

Since 2003, Close the Gap has already received more than 1 499 716 ICT devices from companies all over the world.

Today, Close the Gap has supported more than 10 670 projects in more than 50 countries (mostly in Africa), and reached more than 5 496 807 beneficiaries.
