Computers for Clients

Have you ever wanted to use the computer as part of your lesson? Or teach a client to job search or help with homework on the computer? Here is an interesting resource. A company in Salt Lake allows customers to get a computer for a LOW cost or for service hours. I looked through the site and they have some great stuff. The computers are not new (around 4-7 years old), but they will definitely work great for your clients or your family.

Their Website

Here's what they say about how people can get a computer:

"Individuals may obtain a computer via purchase (typically starting at $100/$130), or by completing 15 hours of service to our organization. There is no technical experience necessary to volunteer with our organization. We have lots of nontechnical tasks (such as cleaning, sorting, etc.), and with any technical tasks, we'll show you how to do it.
Service hours can be performed by proxies and may also be pooled -- so, for example, a family of 5 could serve 3 hours and achieve the 15 total hours needed to receive a computer system. To volunteer, just show up at our warehouse during warehouse hours."
Their warehouse is located at 555 S 400 W, Salt Lake City, UT.
