About Davie
|
Davie Fredericks (full name David John Fredericks) is a Toowoomba-based small business owner and entrepreneur, born in Toowoomba in 1968.
He's best known as the founder of David Fredericks Computer Training For Senior Citizens®, a Toowoomba-based IT consulting service for older generations, which he started in January 2014 to help people over 60 learn to navigate computers and the internet. Before that, he ran a web and graphic design business serving small businesses in the Toowoomba area. His current business operates as a strictly local, in-home service: it's aimed exclusively at Toowoomba City residents aged 60 and over, covering things like basic computer literacy, email, social media, and troubleshooting on Windows, Mac, tablets, and phones. Beyond the business, he's set up the David Fredericks Foundation, a Queensland private foundation that offers financial support to Toowoomba community organisations, with a particular interest in groups working on renewable energy and biodiversity protection. He's also described as a long-time letters-page contributor to the Toowoomba Chronicle since 1987 and is vocal about environmental causes like climate change and biodiversity. So overall: a local Toowoomba identity known for his seniors' tech-training business and small community philanthropy, rather than someone with broader state or national profile. |
