Our tech college has tons of them. Great idea.
I have worked at this place building pc's and tearing them down they will help anyone that has a school age child and has no means of getting a computer,,They build all with new software and drives..No junk here
This would be so welcome partnership in the community and surrounding area
great use of an overlooked resource. Good work!
In the last few weeks, Kramden has awarded 250 computers to students in Sampson County! These awards were made possibly by a grant from Southern Bank and organized by Kramden board member Ruby Potter with help from many volunteers including students from Tarheel ChalleNGe Academy.
