Giving The Gift Of Technology

»  Comments | Post a Comment

COLUMBUS, Ohio –Some special volunteers are giving the gift of technology to some Central Ohio residents who really need it.

One group in Columbus is working to put used computers to work for those who need it most.

On Saturday, volunteers at Parity International invited Central Ohioans to drop off old equipment. The group just opened an office in the Northland area and from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. on Saturday, they accepted donations of people’s unwanted technology.

The group takes the donated computers and other technology and refurbishes it, then gives it to local families or organizations that need them.

Parity International insists that all computer hard drives be erased to the Department of Defense standards and they take personal information security seriously.

If you are interested in finding out about donating or getting a computer, contact Parity International at (614) 704-3866.
