For a community
to be technologically literate, it is important to provide access to computers
and the Internet to as many residents as possible, including the less fortunate
ones. Some community and child care centers still use early Pentium or 486
computers. Other than for keyboarding, most of those computers are inadequate
for today's software applications.
As the name
indicates, the purpose of the Resource Exchange is to facilitate the exchange
of surplus resources between businesses and community organizations. In
particular, we are looking for computers and monitors that companies and
individuals are planning to retire and that can be passed on.
We encourage
hospitals, large corporations and small businesses to provide us with
computers for community technology centers. The minimum requirements for
donations of computer hardware are a Pentium II level computer and a 15"
monitor.
This section
is also a forum for schools, community technology centers, and non-profit
organizations to list their technology needs and solicit sponsors.
If you would
like to donate or receive equipment, please send email to exchange@ncfcc.org.
