Hi everyone,

I wanted to let you know that this event is a drop-off point for
donations to Free IT Athens. Wolf Halton will be collecting them for us.

Over at Free IT Athens, we're facing a problem that hasn't occurred
since mid 2009: we're running low on computers! This means that
volunteers who want to gain experience with computer hardware and linux
have nothing to work on, and families that would like to purchase a
low-cost computer have to stay on a waiting list.

If you have any computers with a 500 mhz or faster processor that you
can donate, this would be a great help! Donations are tax-deductible. If
you need a receipt, please attach the following information to your
donation and we'll send one to you - Name, Address, Phone #, Email, What
you donated.

More information on what equipment we can and can't use is available at
http://www.freeitathens.org/donate

All the best,
Brian Pitts
