Sustainability and society
Democratizing technology, by providing access to tools, has been at the heart of Raspberry Pi since its inception in 2012.
By driving down the cost of general-purpose computing to below $5, we have opened up the ability for anybody to use computers in projects that previously required prohibitive amounts of capital.
Funding computer science education in the home and schools
Raspberry Pi Foundation aims to further the advancement of education of adults and children, particularly in the field of computers, computer science and related subjects.
The Foundation’s aims are to:
- Engage millions of young people in learning computing
- Enable every school to offer students opportunity to study computing and computer science
- Understand how young people learn about computing and use that knowledge to increase online learning
Leading the world in low-power computing with the smallest resource footprint
Raspberry Pi computers are more efficient to manufacture, and consume less energy, than legacy desktop and embedded PCs.
Compared to a traditional desktop PC:
- >90% less wastewater on PCB manufacture
- >85% less electrical power during normal operation
- 98% less shipping volume
Powering start-ups and scale-up
Raspberry Pi products are used in a large and growing number of embedded applications, from washing machines to underwater exploration vehicles.
We are committed to helping businesses bring Raspberry Pi-powered products to market.

Enabling the developing world
We seek to ensure people anywhere in the world can have access to a Raspberry Pi, including those in developing nations.
We actively support the onboarding of resellers in developing nations with 10 resellers in Central and South America, and 17 in developing countries in Asia.
We are actively seeking resellers in African nations and plan to work with the Foundation to support their activities in low and middle-income countries, supported by a grant from the Ezrah Charitable Trust.
