It has always been a good idea to “Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle” especially with regards to electronic devices and equipment. Now it is even easier for your still functioning, but no longer useful hardware to make a contribution.

To commemorate its 25th anniversary, PC Magazine announces the PC Magazine Digital Love program, a technology equipment donation program, in partnership with the National Cristina Foundation (NCF), a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the support of training through donated, used technology. The program provides computer technology to people with disabilities, students at risk and economically-disadvantaged persons. Combined with training, this program enables them to lead more independent and productive lives. For more information or to donate online, please visit this site.

[Through the Digital Love Program] NCF provided [hardware] to Computers for Youth (CFY), a not-for-profit organization that takes donated systems and repurposes them into home learning centers for children. CFY installs education software, provides free Internet service and offers free tech support for the recipients of the systems. CFY distributes these systems to low-income children in selected schools.

This sounds like a double-good idea to me, and a feel-good as well! Any of you out there have any comments, ideas, or suggestions?
