Place to find used Macs and help a cause
« on: December 24, 2003, 05:44:25 PM »
tongue.gif Here is the online site for Goodwill. You can help out people and may be find some cool stuff. I have bought Mac's from Goodwill at a local auction, this is were I got my first Mac a Classic with Keyboard and mouse in 1999. They have a online auction now and you can regesiter and you can still look around without it. International's some of the Goodwill sites will not ship international. I did not see any Mac's this time but I am sure some will come in the future, they got just about everything else.

Thank you for the link.
 We always have given our Macs, printers, and anything good to our local schools.  If the school can't use them, then they know a family who can.  If there is something that needs to be done to the computer, then the techs at the High School fix it and shows the students how he/she does it.
That is our first thought.
I have also put things in the local paper for free,,,,,,,you never see the people out there in your very own little town who can't afford one.
And do tell them to call you if they have a problem, what is a little tech support for us to do, just help out one family, one youngster.
Talk to the parent volunteers too, they will know of someone who needs a Mac and can't afford one.
