Do you know non-profit organizations that teach children (in developing countries) about computer science or provide hardware?

I dream of working for one of them. Of course there is Youtube and Sololearn, etc. But I'd love to helping them work with Arduinos and Raspberry Pis and thus enable them to develop their computer science skills and maybe get a good job in the future. If there aren't any, do you think is would be a good project? Chris :)

Most of the time "developing countries" means totally inadequate education/health care infrastructure and closed markets. In some developing countries the raspberry pi zero (the 5usd computer board) costs 45usd. Arduino is the toy for the rich world, Good luck trying to buy components and/or modules in countries where imports are taxed over 100% there is no trashed electronics to scavange parts and internet is mostly available exclusively via expensive mobile operators. Developing countries have other urgencies to take care of before they can play.
