Free Geek
Client since 2017
Free Geek receives donated used computers from the public and businesses, that our volunteers then refurbish with care. Volunteers can donate time in exchange for a free computer. The Hardware Grants Program connects qualifying non-profits, schools, religious, and community change organizations with needed and available refurbished computer equipment. They also collect e-waste per Oregon law, and reuse or recycle it properly, to keep precious metals out of the landfill.
