Cornwall College is among the growing number of Jamaican schools, which have benefited from the organisation since its inception. Teens for Technology has partnered with several groups to establish 115 computer labs, equipping them with 1,200 computers in the last three years. They plan to supply 10,000 computers and accessories by 2007.

At the handing over ceremony on Wednesday CCOBA business manager Trevor Tomlinson said the donation is the culmination of the first phase of an ongoing campaign to restore the institution to a place of pride among secondary level education providers in Jamaica. He noted that the association would donate another 20 computers to the school over the next few months.
