We believe that at the root of a strong society is an educated populace with access to good quality information. Without education, people struggle to participate in decision-making and change: the Foundation supports projects which promote education for all people

David was a pioneer and an innovator in the field of mobile and personal computing and established the Foundation with the mission of making a lasting difference in the lives of others.
Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. We kindly ask that the privacy of the family is respected during this difficult time.
We remain committed to honouring his vision by continuing our work to build a stronger and fairer society.
