Our world is advancing technologically at such a fast pace. A new class system is developing: those who are computer savvy, and those who are not.

Students & Children:
Children who come from homes without a computer are at a disadvantage in several ways. First, they lack the basic computer skills that other students have acquired at home. This makes them enter their classes at a lower technical level. At home, they cannot practice their computer skills or complete assignments such as typing papers, creating presentations and doing Internet research. By redistributing computers which would be thrown out anyway, more students will have the basic tools to keep them active participants in our advancing world.

Adults:
Computers are also distributed to adults who use them to practice job skills, type their résumés, and use them to access information on the Internet.

Senior Citizens:
Many homebound senior citizens have found a new life through the use of e-mail and the Internet. Computers help them keep in touch with family, friends, and the world.
