[Hidden-tech] NoHo organization looking for laptop donation

[Karin Kugel]

Cheryl,

Are you familiar with TechSoup <http://www.techsoup.org/>? It's an
organization that acts as a clearinghouse for software, hardware, and other
tech-related donations and services for nonprofits.  There are admin fees
and organizational requirements to receive some donations. Computer
donations are listed at http://www.techsoup.org/computers-and-electronics.

Best,

Karin
