Recycling computers with Free Geek

by Clair on April 30th, 2008

Free Geek is a group of people who reuse computers so that others may benefit from them. They’re based in Portland, Oregon. The nice thing about their group is that they really want to give individuals and non-profit organizations. They have a thrift shop and hardware grants.

You could volunteer in the organization or give your old hardware so that there’d be more of the technology to go around. Linux is installed in these computers so that’s one way for others to use Linux in their day to day lives.

Programs like these are great for every community in order to spread technology and Linux adoption. :) Is there such a program in your community already? I hope you could get inspired by the Free Geek organization’s projects.
