Monetary hardships should not be a barrier in the way of technology. It's my mission and duty to help those who are in hard times.
I accept donations of many devices such as desktops & laptops. Perform a bit of maintenance work on them such as changing out the CMOS battery and ensuring that no user data from the previous owner is left. All data that comes through me is be destroyed or erased. I also make sure that all computers I disperse to the community are in good working condition with all needed components*.
*Older computers may not be able to access the internet without Ethernet cords or external adapters.
I plan to do collection events (almost) monthly to acquire devices from the community. These devices are either tuned up or parted out to other machines with broken parts. Please come to an event (details on Facebook page), donate, or spread the word.
In the future I want to own a physical location and have a more centralized public front. But I also want to have a classroom where anyone can learn how to use technology.
