Equipping Calabrian Kids with Tech, Education & Dignity
Led by 20+ year tech founder Sean Raynon, we collect refurbished laptops, monitors, computer parts, and financial aid directly for the orphaned and neglected children of Calabrian Children’s Foundation in Cagayan de Oro City.
Target: 50 High-Performance Workstations
Why We Are Mobilizing Tech For Cagayan de Oro
In the modern economy, digital literacy is not a luxury—it is fundamental survival. We combine practical enterprise hardware with caring educational mentorship.
1. Hardware Rescue & Renewal
Companies retire thousands of reliable laptops every quarter. We collect, securely sanitize (NIST 800-88 compliant), upgrade with SSDs, and deploy them straight to eager young learners.
- Zero electronic waste in landfills
- Full hardware upgrade & warranty check
2. Direct Financial Solidarity
Hardware alone is not enough. Financial donations fund high-speed fiber internet, electricity stability, solar backup power, software licenses, and classroom desks for the children.
- Direct ACH & Wire to CCF institution
- Transparent expense reporting
3. Real Career Readiness
We don’t just hand over computers; we introduce typing, basic programming, English proficiency, and digital arts so graduates can secure vocational or university scholarships.
- Ages 7–17 comprehensive curriculum
- Mentorship led by industry engineers
Bring Starlink Mini Unlimited Internet to the Children
The Calabrian Children’s Foundation sits in a coastal area of Cagayan de Oro where reliable broadband is unstable and expensive. A single Starlink Mini with an unlimited data plan would deliver high-speed, low-latency satellite internet to the entire home — powering uninterrupted online schooling, coding classes, video tutoring, and digital research for every resident.
Project Funding Goal
Starlink Mini · Unlimited Data Package
Only $2,716 left to fully fund hardware + a full year of unlimited connectivity.

Sean Raynon
Founder & CTO • 20+ Years Tech Veteran
Initiative Lead, Sean Raynon
“I have spent two decades engineering full-stack software, SaaS, and AI systems. Having seen how technology permanently transforms upward mobility, I believe every child—regardless of their starting circumstances—deserves access to modern computing tools and mentorship.”
Why Sean Raynon Backs the Calabrian Children’s Foundation
The Calabrian Children’s Foundation in Cagayan de Oro City has provided sanctuary to neglected, street-dwelling, and orphaned boys for years. While the religious community offers unmatched love and spiritual care, resources for high-speed internet and modern hardware have historically been scarce.
Through Sean Raynon, our commitment is simple: we bridge the tech gap. We mobilize working laptops, monitors, RAM, and educational funding directly to the foundation. Every piece of equipment is personally audited for functionality, pre-loaded with curated learning suites, and handed directly to the foundation’s caregivers.
Zero administrative cuts. Complete transparency. Direct community impact.
