Donations Corporate Donations If you are working for or know of a business that is about to upgrade their computer systems, we are only too happy to accept superseded equipment, providing it meets our minimum specification (Pentium 3 or better). If in doubt please call Chris or Simon on 07 3165 4600 Private Donations If you have a personal computer (Pentium 3 or better), IN
GOOD WORKING ORDER AND YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL DRIVER DISK(S) we
can accept it for refurbishment. We are unable to accept
Pentium 1 and 2 computers unless they are part of a shipment of
Pentium 3 or better. This is due to a lack of orders from the
Third World for the lower specification machines. It is a sad
fact of life that older equipment often cannot be refurbished
to meet our quality control standards so would be better off
with a recycler. As we incur recycling charges for equipment
which can't be turned into a reliable homework computer system,
C4K reserves the right to decline acceptance of equipment
unsuitable for refurbishment. We also do not refurbish Apple
Macs or dot matrix printers. For directions on getting to Computers 4 Kids please see the following street map. For a comprehensive location map of where we are within the college, please view the layout of Aviation College (formerly, the Hendra Secondary College). Donations can be delivered between the hours of 10am and noon on Thursdays and Saturdays. Please advise Chris or Simon via email or phone 07 3165 4600 to arrange a drop off. Please note that as our workers are volunteers it may take a day or two to reply to your phone calls or emails. All donated hard drives are overwritten to preclude the recovery of Donor information. A written receipt will be provided on request. Other Options If your computer equipment is unsuitable for refurbishment we recommend Dell Computer Recycling. Charges may apply. Thank You ! We would like to thank those people involved in the donation process. We appreciate their time and effort, as it can certainly take some organising to shift large donations.
