Quick Rules!

Laptop must be in working order, must be a Pentium 4, and must be capable of housing at least 1 gig of RAM – within 5 years old as a rule of thumb, to be considered for this giveaway.

All approved donated computers will be exchanged for ONE free ticket per laptop to be entered into the giveaway. If you are donating more than one laptop, you will receive one free ticket with each laptop donated to be entered. Winner will be announced at the conclusion of the workshops and prize will be awarded at the conclusion of the event. MUST be present to win.

About Geek Girl Camp and the Laptop Donation Program:

The Mission of Geek Girl Camp is to educate and empower every girl and woman at every age level, on every skill level, at every income level on computer technology with fun and provide a legacy by giving back and paying it forward.

The First Laptop Donation! Geek Girls #2 and #3, Paula Hersey and June Bertucci, with Arlene Kirsch.

Geek Girl Camp started the Laptop Donation Program to offset the high cost of owning a laptop for women/girls in need, with the environmental mindset of reuse and recycle when available. Geek Girl Camp has collected gently used laptops that fit the criteria, update and fix them, then deliver to local individuals in need of a laptop who may otherwise not have that opportunity. Geek Girl Camp has helped dozens of women in transition get their lives back in order, back to school or on to a new job, physically disabled women who need assistance, students with limited financial resources, and many other circumstances. If you cannot attend Boot Camp but would still like to donate a gently used laptop, contact Geek Girl Camp by email. Find out more information about Geek Girl Camp online, and follow them on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
