TODAY 10-2

📢 The shelves are empty!
Tomorrow, Computer CORE is hosting an E-Cycling Day, and we need your help replenishing the shelves with laptop computers for adult learners across the DMV.
We especially need Windows 11-capable laptops, but we welcome laptops of all ages, as well as other electronics, monitors, keyboards, mice, cables, and peripherals. If possible, please include the charging cable. Please leave hard drives intact—we will securely wipe all data using industry-standard methods before refurbishing or recycling equipment. Tax receipts are available for donations.
Items that cannot be reused by Computer CORE will be responsibly recycled. ♻️

Happy Juneteenth from Computer CORE! Wishing our students, volunteers, staff, and supporters a meaningful Juneteenth.
Today we honor Juneteenth, a U.S. holiday that commemorates June 19, 1865, when the last enslaved African Americans in Texas learned they were free—more than two years after slavery had officially been abolished. Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom, resilience, and opportunity. It also reminds us of the importance of access to information, since unequal access to information was one of many factors that limited opportunity and delayed freedom. At Computer CORE, we believe that access to technology, digital skills, and reliable information remains essential to full participation in society. As we commemorate Juneteenth, we reaffirm our commitment to helping ensure that everyone has the tools, knowledge, and connectivity needed to learn, work, and thrive.

YOU did it—our $5,000 match has been unlocked thanks to our incredible donor community!
Now let’s keep going. We’re working toward our $30,000 goal as part of Spring2ACTion.
Every dollar helps Computer CORE provide free digital skills classes, one-on-one support, and refurbished computers—so adults can access jobs, services, and opportunities that increasingly require technology.
If you’ve been thinking about giving, now is the moment. Help us finish strong. https://www.spring2action.org/organization/computer-core
Through the Neighborhood Assistance Program (NAP) for Education, Virginia residents can earn a 65% tax credit when you give $500 or more to Computer CORE—a direct credit, not just a deduction.
