Teaming for Technology
Q: Why sponsor Teaming for Technology?
BECAUSE Teaming for Technology provides one of the most important tools to someone less fortunate, a computer. Picture a single parent with a child in 4th grade. This mother is cash strapped even though she works full-time. She can hardly afford the bare necessities and certainly not a computer for her family to share. Teaming for Technology works with nonprofit organizations and schools that help working parents and their children access information needed to complete homework, submit job applications, and access resources families need to create opportunities for a better life. Your support allows us to provide families with something we all take for granted, a computer. Just think about it for a second, just think all the things you do with the click of a button and try to imagine not having your home computer.
Financial support and computer donations are vital to the success and continuity of our reuse program. Please become a Teaming for Technology sponsor supporting one of our bigger events.
