Le Programme des ordinateurs pour les écoles (OPE) est un programme national, dirigé par le gouvernement fédéral, qui fonctionne en collaboration avec les provinces et les territoires, le secteur privé et celui du bénévolat. Il permet de recueillir, de réparer et de remettre à neuf des ordinateurs excédentaires provenant des administrations publiques et du secteur privé, avant qu'ils ne soient distribués gratuitement aux écoles et aux bibliothèques d'un bout à l'autre du Canada. Le Programme OPE a été mis sur pied en 1993 par Industrie Canada, conjointement avec les Pionniers du téléphone le plus vaste organisme de bénévolat du monde ayant un lien avec l'industrie. Le Programme des ordinateurs pour les écoles contribue à l'initiative «Un Canada branché» mise sur pied par le gouvernement. Le Programme OPE, qui, depuis ses débuts, a fourni plus de 250 000 ordinateurs aux écoles et aux bibliothèques de l'ensemble des provinces et territoires, en fournit maintenant plus de 60 000 autres par année. En plus de coordonner les donateurs d'ordinateurs et les bénéficiaires, les responsables du Programme OPE supervisent plus de 55 centres de réparation et de remise à neuf aux quatre coins du Canada, où l'on nettoie les ordinateurs, on les remet à neuf et on les prépare à être livrés. Ce sont des bénévoles qui travaillent dans ces ateliers, entre autres des professionnels des télécommunications, en exercice ou à la retraite, et des étudiants.
