2005 - Revive your old computer - donate it to NHU!

If you have an outdated computer lying around for what seems like eons, we can revive it and put it to good use in our local community. All donated equipment will be refurbished and used for the training of people with disabilities or will be given directly to people with disabilities for their personal home use.

Instead of filling a landfill, place your used computer with an organization that is working to span the vast digital divide for our community members with disabilities!

To learn if your computer could benefit our organization, please review our Computer Spec Sheet.
