Computers for Success Nunavut (CFSN)

The Computers for Success Nunavut (CFSN) program helps to bridge the digital divide in Canada’s North by providing technology opportunities for communities.

Since 2016, we have provided over 1000 computers across Nunavut! CFSN is a part of the Government of Canada program Computers for Schools Plus, which has refurbished and distributed over 1.6 million computers, and offered more than 7000 paid internships nationally since its inception in 1993.

The program is administered by Pinnguaq with support from the entire CFS network across Canada – as well as the Department of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) and Computers for Success Canada (CFSC). CFSN is part of our Pinnguaq Life Cycle. We enhance the program by offering digital skills and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) learning across Nunavut to ensure that children, youth, and adults have the technology and tools they need for equitable access to technology and connectivity.

What CFSN Offers

The three objectives of Pinnguaq’s work through the CFSN program are:

1

Increase access to technology for Nunavummiut

2

Provide in-territory employment and training opportunities in the technology sector

3

Reduce e-waste by giving used computers a second life

Computers distributed are equipped with basic software to aid in academic or STEAM pursuits, including Blender (3D Modeling), Gimp (image processing), Open Office (word processing, spreadsheet, presentation, etc.) and Scratch (introductory programming).

The CFSN program is intended to support all Nunavummiut in need of a computer. There are no age restrictions regarding who qualifies for assistance through this program.

Reduce waste, increase access to digital technology

Donate laptops, desktops, monitors, keyboards, mice and cables.
