Teamchildren
is a non-profit organization that wants to get low cost computers into the
homes of needy families. To date, they
have distributed about 15,000 computers!
This
morning, on Good Day, Robert Toporek showcased some of the models that
teamchildren offers at a reduced cost.
The
organization accepts donations from companies that have an overstock of older
computers. They are refurbished and can
be priced hundreds of dollars below retail price. They offer laptops for as little as $200.
The
models come loaded with learning software.
If you head over to teamchildren.com, you
will find an application to buy one of these computers at the reduced cost.
