System76 Partners with Kids On Computers

System76 and Kids On Computers have partnered to bring computers and
open source software to disadvantaged children. Kids On Computers, a
non-profit organization, deploys Ubuntu based computer labs in schools
and communities around the world. The organization's first school in
Huajuapan de Leon, Mexico, was a resounding success. They now have a
dedicated computer teacher and are expecting Internet access very
soon. The school went from being one of the poorest schools in town to
being the school where all parents want their kids to go!

System76 now offers a "Donate Your Old Computer" option on each
product page. By choosing the "Donate Your Old Computer" option,
System76 emails you a mailing label to ship your old computer to Kids
On Computers. There is a $10 cost which covers a portion of the
shipping. System76 covers the remaining shipping cost. Your old
computer is tax deductible, and Kids on Computers will provide a
donation receipt.
