AZStRUT should be able to help you with computers.

http://www.azstrut.org/index.html

"We're AZStRUT, and we put real-world technology training to work for
Arizona's students and educators. Our model program teaches students
valuable technology skills; provides quality refurbished computers to
schools and non-profits around the state; and benefits the environment by
diverting old equipment from our landfills.

It's a classic win-win-win situation which benefits everyone involved. With
your help, together we all come out ahead!"

I participated in this program for several years in high school. Highly
recommended.

"If you would like to donate a quantity of used computers or other equipment
to StRUT, if you know of a worthy non-profit organization in need of a
computer, or if you would like more information on this innovative program,
contact StRUT at (602) 454-2680 or email us at: ."

The owner of a childcare center in the near west side Phoenix area has
expressed interest in providing a computer experience to his clients'
children. All of these children come from disadvantaged homes where
computers are unlikely.
I'm posting this to send out feelers for suggestions of:

1. where to get possible hardware donations perhaps from corporatations
upgrading their pc's.
2. what kind of hardware configurations are best (ie. 1 server, clients w/o
hdd's).
3. recommended software for early teen & preteen.

If anyone has done a similar project we could use your suggestions as well.

You can pm me at
