Computers for Charity

"No child or family in Northwest Ohio should be left behind in the digital divide."

Our Process

The Computer equipment comes in in various states of disrepair and that is perfectly OK. We can still make use of it. We have a skilled team of volunteers and technicians who can sort it all out and make it work again.

As the equipment comes in it is evaluated and inventoried. Once the non-usable items are  identified they are separated by type to be recycled properly.

Computer systems are then refurbished by identifying and replacing problem hardware as needed and upgrading the computers to meet the operating system specifications.

We use a secure deletion format to 'shred' any personal data on the system, destroying the data on the drive to Department of Defense standards, before installing the new operating system. You can be assured of your data privacy.

The refurbished computers are then taken to our distribution location at Turning Point United Methodist Church in Bowling Green Ohio where they are distributed to individuals, families and charities right here in Northwest Ohio.

We need a constant influx of new equipment to continue this important service to our community!
 
 
Every computer dumped into a landfill represents a missed opportunity to provide Information-Age tools to individuals and organizations across the digital divide.

If you have a computer that is less then five years old, it can be put to good use by someone in need. Even computers that are non-functioning can still yield valuable parts to repair other computers. Please contact us to donate your computer today!
