DONATION SITE LAUNCHES ALERTS BY EMAIL |
23/09/03 |

Charities
can now sign up to receive free email newsletters on the very latest donated
IT equipment which is available on the Donate A PC website.
Donate A PC receives donations of PCs and other IT equipment for charities
and, since launching there have been Pentium PCs, laser printers, Apple
computers, PC monitors and other equipment donated.
Ivan Wainewright, one of the site founders, explained: "The newsletters
now mean that charities do not have to continually re-visit the site to
find out what IT equipment is currently available."
The site was set up because there are many people who would like to give
their old and un-needed computers to a charity but for various reasons they
cannot do so through one of the standard recycling organisations.
For donors, the service is primarily intended for people who only have one
or two computers they want to donate, or for anyone who can't find a recycling
organisation who will take their unwanted equipment.
The site also includes tips for charities on what they should consider before
accepting a used computer and articles on what donors should do before donating
their PC to charity.
