General Guidelines

General Guidelines:

You must use the computers for establishing 1 or a combination of these 3 models:

  • CTC (Community Technology Centers) – We provide computers for non-profits and schools to establish or upgrade computer labs within their facilities.
  • Staff Support – We provide computers for the administrative technical needs of non-profits and schools.
  • Learn & Earn – We provide computers for non-profits and schools to establish programs where their students or clients earn a computer after completing some training. The purpose of the training is to insure that anyone receiving a computer should be able to do basic things on it like start it up and shut it down, save documents and retrieve documents, use email and Internet, and do basic word processing.
  1. You may apply and receive computers only one time per calendar year.
  2. For non-profit organizations, you must mail in a current 501©(3) public charity determination letter from the Us Department of Treasury (example). DO NOT mail in your state sales tax certificate. For schools, you must mail in a current state or national accreditation certificate.
  3. The CEO, President, Executive Director, Principal, or Superintendent must sign and mail in our donation agreement before we can approve your application.
