This program donates computers to public schools, teachers, and community nonprofit organizations. The computers are used but have been tested for functionality. Some computers are refurbished by volunteers and students in the COMPUTERS & Education training programs. You must use their web-posted application form to apply for a computer, http://www.crc.org. There is an administrative fee of $25 - $50 per computer system.

There are "Saturday Fundraisers" that offer low-cost computer systems and parts to the public. You will find newer/used/closeout/clearance computer systems, parts, accessories, printers, cards, motherboards, cases, power supplies, etc. If you even think they ever made it for a computer, this is the place to look for it.

Marin Computer Resource Center places refurbished computer products with local non-profit organizations, schools and low-income Marin families.
