DONATE YOUR OLD (but not too old) COMPUTER and/or MONITOR

We are always looking for working computers and monitors for our Computer Giveaway Program and A+ Certification training. Please call us first at 841-0333 to make sure that your donations meet our minimum requirements (listed below) as some computers and monitors are simply too old to be useful anymore.  We now request a $10 recycling fee per donated computer to help defray our recycling costs.

Preferred Minimum Requirements:

IBM compatible

Pentium 233 or higher
64 MB RAM or greater
3 GB hard drive or greater
Windows 98 or higher
CD-ROM drive
Internal modem or ethernet card
15"+ monitor
(note: if the PC has XP, you must provide us with the CD with license as well)

Macs

We are not accepting Macs at this time. Sorry, but thanks for thinking of us!

 







RECEIVE A COMPUTER THROUGH OUR COMPUTER GIVEAWAY PROGRAM

We typically give away 12-15 refurbished units per year --
get your name on the list.
   (Note: Currently Douglas, Franklin and Jefferson Counties, Kansas only - please don't ask if you don't live here - we can't help you)

For more information call CLC Staff at Independence, Inc -- 841-0333 



Thanks to Josh Frederickson of DistributorResources.com and Bob Northrop, Virtual Web Works, for their gracious donation of hard drives to our program.


DONATE TRAINING SOFTWARE AND LICENSES

Since we train a great number of people and technology is always changing, we are always in need of new software programs, upgrades and multi-user licenses for use in our Lab and our new Vocational Training Programs. if you'd like tp help, you may donate either the new software itself or funding to help pay for the software, upgrades and licenses.

Note: if you wish your donation to apply to Computer Learning Center items, please put CLC on your check or write a note saying that you'd like CLC to be able to use the donation to purchase software. If you wish it to apply to a particular piece of software, please note that as well.

As always, your contributions are greatly appreciated and help many people become more productive and self-reliant.
Please call us at 841-0333 if you have any questions.
