IBM Gives Computers to Nonprofits
|
|
IBM Corporation awarded the company's 2007 Technology Grants of computer equipment to nine Northeast Ohio nonprofits at United Way of Greater Cleveland's offices in December. For more than a decade, IBM has donated computers to numerous local area nonprofit organizations. The nation's best-known computer maker, IBM donates thousands of kid-friendly computers worldwide to schools, community centers and agencies through its KidSmart Early Learning Program, which helps young children to become computer-savvy sooner.
IBM presented the grant-winning local nonprofits with computers, with four of the organizations receiving Young Explorer Systems and the remaining agencies receiving ThinkPad or desktop computers. |
