Here is a great program that needs old computer equipment! Please see the details in the flyer and consider contributing to this program.

Have you ever wondered what to do with that old device now that you have a new one?

SERCAP can help you with that decision! SERCAP will be spearheading a project to provide gently used laptops, IPads, Tablets, chrome books and Smart Phones to senior citizens and students living in underserved rural areas who do not have devices or access to broadband.

As part of our Rural LISC NC Grant SERCAP will ensure that the seniors have access to training so that they can easily use these devices for things such as telemedicine, etc. We would like to use the funds from the grant to refurbish these items instead of just purchasing new devices. This way we will be able to reach many more recipients. We will be doing screening for those seniors that are self-isolated, have no transportation and live alone.

There are also many grandparents raising grandchildren in one particular county in NC that are requesting chrome books for their grandchildren if you have those.

Please consider donating your old devices to be refurbished and put to good use instead of lying in a drawer or cluttering up your space.

Items donated need to meet the following criteria:

· IPads cannot be more than 3 to 4 years old

· Laptops must have at least a Windows 7 Operating System

· Please remember to log out of any IPad donated and include any chargers, instructions, boxes and protectors if you still have them.

Send your donated devices to Kim Martin, 8938 NC HWY 45 N, Belhaven, NC 27810.
