![]() Hello all! I have updated the Computer Equipment for Kids Wish List. The biggest thing I need right now are hard drives. I received a large donation from a government contractor but all the hard drives had been removed. So I am looking for 10 WD - Western Digital 160GB SATA 3.5 Hard Drive - WD1600AAJS drives. They are around 30 bucks. A small price to pay to help in the learning of a child. And as always thanks for all the help and support! mark Mission Statement: I've delivered about 3 computers in the last week, I would like to thank everyone who has donated time and equipment to this effort. If anyone knows of any non-profit organizations which need computer equipment for a training/learning lab please send them my way. I have about 6 workstations that need a home.
Thanks Bartlett Finally got around to creating a flyer for the Computer Equipment for Kids program. If you are a teacher, therapist, baby sitter in Norther Virgina please print this flyer out and show it to someone (principal, helper at daycare center, youth leader, etc). I have a few machines that are ready for a new home. ![]()
Hello all,
Hopefully everyone is GREAT and gearing up for this holiday season. While you are out buying new gadgets (tablets, laptops, computers, etc) remember your old devices can be used by someone else! The Computer Equipment for Kids Program will take all your old USABLE gadgets (tablets, laptops, computers, etc), refurbish them (which includes formatting/clearing the data off the device), and distribute them to K-6 graders who are in need. I am currently working on getting the "Computer Equipment for Kids Program" turned into an official "Non-Profit" organization so I can accept donations directly to purchase computer equipment. If you have anything you wish to donate PLEASE contact me: mrbartlett@mrbartlett.com. Please 'share' this out, the more eyes the more donations. Happy Holidays! Bartlett PS. The Computer Equipment for Kids Program is ALWAYS looking for donations, especially the following:
HELLO!
Just wanted to let everyone know that I have delivered 4 machines over the last 2 weeks! Now I need more computer donations. If you have an old laptops/desktops around your house collecting dust send it my way! Or if your company/employer has old computer equipment please keep us in mind. I erase hard drives using a program called DBAN (http://sourceforge.net/projects/dban/) so you can rest assured none of the data on your hard drive will be 'viewed' by anyone else. Here is a list of items we need:
Thank you all for the support!! Hope all is AWESOME! bartlett mrbartlett@mrbartlett.com Hello all!!
Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be dropping off my first two computers tomorrow! It's been a long road but this program is really starting to take off. I have 5 different families which I will be delivering computers to and 4 other computers marked for delivery to a non-profit computer training program for adults who need to learn more technology skills. As the list of recipients grows I need more donations! A nice problem to have. If you have ANYTHING you would like to donate please shoot me an email. <mrbartlett(at)mrbartlett.com> Lastly, I would like to send a BIG THANK YOU out to everyone who has donated. The impact these computers will make on these young folks will be HUGE! Bartlett Hello all,
If you know of a child which needs a computer PLEASE let me know. The reason for this project is to get computers into the hands of kids who cannot afford them. I am working through the school but I know there are others in need. Thanks! Bartlett Hello everyone,
I'm pleased to announce that I have 6 machines built (2 laptops and 4 workstations). I am in need of computer accessories which include: - Keyboards (old school or USB) - Mouse (old school or USB) - Monitors (old tube monitors or new ones) - Speakers - Power cables (three prong for monitors and workstations) If you have any of these things and would like to donate please shoot me an email (mrbartlett <at> mrbartlett.com) and I will coordinate pickup or mailing of the items. Thanks! Bartlett Hello all!
I have started a program to provide K-6 grade children with computer equipment. I am working with our local elementary school to provide computer equipment to families who cannot afford them. I take old/used computer systems, refurbish them (cleaning the system, installing a new Operating System, fixing minor issues, etc), deliver and setup the machines so the kids can start using them immediately. I firmly believe everyone should have the right to technology and access to the internet. Just think about how having a computer in your home has helped you learn things you never would have by just having access to the local library. I am looking for old/USABLE computers, monitors, printers, keyboards, and mouse equipment. If you have something to donate please contact me: mrbartlett <at> mrbartlett.com, put this in the SUBJECT line of the email: Computers for Kids Donations. Just because something is 'old' and the technology might not be as current as you would like, doesn't mean there isn't a child out there who couldn't use it. I will work with you on the shipping if you are not located in the Northern Virginia area. Thanks! Bartlett |
