Patch Blog: Donate Old Computers to Kids in Need

The TechWill Club (also known as Technology for Good Will) of SPHS is holding a used computer drive this Friday morning and again in the afternoon. The club is dedicated to refurbishing old computers to donate to third-world countries in need of technology for students. The club believes that a 21st Century education is important for everyone.

Donations can be dropped off rapidly at the on Friday from 7 AM to 8 AM and again from 2 PM to 3 PM in the Bank St Parking Lot just off Fremont. Please enter from the Lyndon gate.

Donations will be refurbished and sent to deserving schools and students in undeveloped countries helping improve the human capital of those countries so these students are ready to enter the 21st Century economy. 

The E-Waste Drive is centered around computers, monitors, keyboard, and mouse, but other types of technology will be accepted as well and recycled. 

The computers will be refurbished over the summer by TechWill members and student volunteers, who, in addition to gaining valuable technical experience, will be able to contribute to the club's efforts towards providing third-world countries with useful technology for education.
