Mini Geek-a-thon/Computer Award Day – May 18
What: A day of working together to refurbish PCs for hardworking students in North Carolina that do not have a home computer. We will need all the help we can get at every “Mini Geek-A-Thon” station from cleaning to final test! You do not have to be a “techie” to get involved with the refurbishing. Our amazing Tech Team will be present to ensure you feel comfortable at whatever station you may choose to volunteer.
The event will also include a Computer Award Day where students and their families will come to Kramden to receive their newly refurbished computers. These students were all nominated by their teachers, principals, and/or school counselors and are considered very hardworking students.
