The gist of what we do is receive machines no longer needed by private citizens and industry, use mitary data destruction for the hard drives, and put Linux on the machine to give to those in need of functional computers for work or study but can't afford new, off-the-shelf computers. We give tax receipts for donations of computers and also from any financial contributions from recipients receiving computers with Linux.
