monitors, printers, key boards, mouse, cell phones, copiers and fax
machines. Items not being accepted include televisions,
VCR/Cable boxes, boxes, manuals and software. Wherever possible,
the collected equipment will be refurbished and reused, while the rest

fact sheets that provide information about donating and a list of free
software you can use to delete information from your computer.
