The lifeblood of our labs centers on
refurbishing hardware that is no longer being used to its highest and best use.
Whether it’s a room full of PC’s or 2 or 3 monitors or even just a single router
or hub or switch, we will find a place for it in one of our labs.
Almost everyone currently has or wants a laser printer, or
some other photo or publishing quality printer. Well the recipients of our labs
currently don’t have anything at all, so whether it’s your Dot matrix printer or
even a Daisy Wheel, we can find a way to use it in a lab that will allow dozens
of children’s and seniors to find their way in today’s technology jungle.

Occasionally folks will call and say “Well I’ve got this computer, but it
doesn’t really work…” Well that’s the beauty of our staff of pc assemblers,
whether it’s a blown chip or a fried motherboard if we can’t get it running
we can always use the parts from your PC to help another one that was
donated in similar shape! We have an amazing record of reviving and
revitalizing PC’s that their previous owners thought could NEVER lead
another productive life cycle
-
This also lends strength to the open source solution,
with our Software platform we can take yesterdays PC’s, that maybe are to
slow to play today’s games, and place them in a network setting where a
1600x1200 display and 100FPS just doesn’t matter! When you’re working on
your Resume or Term paper or even generating last quarters fiscal reports,
the fact that your sound card doesn’t do 5.1, just doesn’t matter! That’s
where we focus our time, using hardware that you don’t find useful anymore
and turning it into a springboard for someone who may never have the chance
any other way!
-
If you have Hardware that you’re not using, or you feel
‘just doesn’t cut it’ anymore, please give us a call, or drop us a line at
Donate@Foundation4Faith.org and let us come by and pick up your
discards. Never again will you need to worry about the acid and lead
leaching into your lawn when you put a monitor at the curb. And printers are
GREAT, but leave them alone in the rain and they’ll kill a plant in a
minute.
Don’t prejudge what you have, we can find a way to
re-source almost anything computer related, and if we cant we’ll find someone
who CAN! Thanks for your support and remember you’re not just helping us but
your helping dozens if not HUNDREDS of others, get a leg up!
