The World Cyber Games organisation has revealed that it will donate $122,000 worth of computer equipment to public schools in the state of California.

The move will see a total of 360 Samsung SyncMaster computer monitors being given to the Los Angeles County Education Foundation, with hopes of enchancing classroom and after-school programs.

"Games and technology are a great way to engage at-risk kids," said Madeline Hall, director of the Los Angeles County Education Foundation. "Having access to the best tools in our classrooms and after school programs will help disadvantaged students experience the opportunities available for them in the broader world, and give them something to strive for in their education."
