Donating Equipment


Pick up form (10 computer systems or more)


Reasons for donating

    Environmental – Effective July 30, 2001 Colorado law states that it is illegal for businesses to dispose of computer monitors due to the toxicity of the lead and other metals (including mercury and arsenic).

    Good Will – There are many people in Colorado who have limited or no access to computers. Your computer donations will have a profound impact on many lives.

    Community connections and public relations opportunities – We let our recipients know that these computers were generously donated from our donor partners.
