TAG Computer Refurbishment Center was launched as an initiative of HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh during his term as Chair of the United Nations Global Alliance for ICT and Development (GAID). The Center aims at revamping IT hardware across the Arab region and present refurbished computers and other equipment to people in need.
As a result of its success, another center has been set up in Amman within the premises of TAG.Global with plans for another center in the southern area to serve the middle and south areas of Jordan.
HE Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh has called on all Arab governments to facilitate the establishment of similar centers by TAG.Global, and the Lebanese government responded positively and arranged for a similar project in Lebanon.
TAG.Global ’s technical staff have already refurbished and distributed over 1,500 computers to charities, camps and schools, in addition to the International Relief Organization, Local Community Development Centre-Gaza Camp, the Hashemite Fund, Al-Quran Preservation Society, Marka Community Development Project, Mountain Lady Orphanage, Small Enterprise Sponsoring and Support Centre, the Jordanian Educational Initiative, and many others.
Around 1,000 devices have also been distributed to the West Bank and Gaza in a joint initiative with the Hashemite Fund for Human Development. TAG.Global provided refurbished computers to Maan Municipality.
